In Windows, an AutoPlay dialog may pop up. Click “View more AutoPlay 
options in Control Panel.” Set the option to “Take no action.” (The next time you 
fire up your camcorder, you should not see this connection query.) In Mac OS, 
if iMovie or another application starts up, see that application’s Help for 
information about which application to open when a camera is connected.

Start Adobe Premiere Pro, click Open Project, navigate to the Lesson 04 folder, 
and double-click Lesson 04-01.prproj.

6
Look above the Capture panel preview pane to make sure your camcorder is 
connected properly.
7
Insert a tape into your camcorder. Adobe Premiere Pro prompts you to give the 
tape a name.
8
Type a name for your tape in the text box. Be sure not to give two tapes the 
same name; Adobe Premiere Pro remembers clip in/out data based on tape 
names.
9
Use the VCR-style device controls in the Capture panel to play, fast-forward, 
rewind, pause, and stop your tape. If you’ve never used a computer to control 
a camcorder, this will seem pretty cool.
