Premiere Plug-In Does Batch Digitizing

  • 01/01/97

MediaMotion Version 3.0 is an easy-to-use, affordable machine-control plug-in for Adobe Premiere 4.2 that makes it easy to automatically control VCRs and camcorders from inside Adobe Premiere. It works with both consumer and professional camcorders and VCRs.

Highlighting the new version is its ability to automatically locate desired scenes and then capture and digitize the video -- allowing users to focus on creative aspects.

The program's improved user interface features a redesigned remote control and on-screen menu with a 3D look to make using the program easier than ever. In addition, users may now record directly from the on-screen remote, with a new record-pause option for Print to Video functions.

MediaMotion 3.0 also handles the Print to Video features of Premiere that assist in recording finished footage on tape. International formats are now supported with the ability to change the Frames Per Second settings to PAL formats. Videonics, Campbell, CA, (800) 338-3348, www.videonics.com. W
