Putting Test on top of video and Capturing video..

[Raska]

Sorry these may be pretty basic questions but I have only been uning Premier for 2 days now and I still can seem to find a place to put text on top of the video. I don't have any other problems with the programs and everything is pretty easy to use other than that.

Also, what is the minumun amount of hardware I need to capture video off my regular Hi8 Camcorder?

Create your title -> Create New...
Make sure the opaque box is not checked in the titler window.
Save your title & import it back into your project.
Put it on V2 or higher... over the section of video on track 1A or 1B.
Right-click on it... Select transparency... alpha channel.
Use rubber bands under the title to fade in & out if you so desire... just like you would do for sound.
Render, hit <enter>
As for your other question, can't answer that one!

Does Adobe 5.0 support DV with an IEEE port? Th program recognizes that my camera is connected because it brings up extra settings in the capture menu, but I cannot get the program to capture my video when I go to the capture movie selection.
