You can use the software Peru Bob mentioned. Capture to HDD and import into Elements but

If the capture feature which no longer excists is the only reason for buying the product, you can ask for your money back within 1 month of purchase from Adobe.

Thank you Ann Bens for your reply. It is something I will consider, though I fancied it as an editing software package too.

    As far as I know, PrE no longer does firewire capture

    -Legacy driver http://www.studio1productions.com/Articles/Firewire-1.htm
    --ALL versions of Windows from 7 through 10 (and 11 ?) need the legacy driver!
    I have NOT used it, but many say to try this for HDV capture

    Thank you John T. for your help  I check on the legacy driver for my StarTech.com PCI express FireWire card, it said the driver is up to date and working. I will check your link. Thanks again for your reply.

    Firewire capture is no longer supported.

    I think Premiere Elements 13 was the last version in which it was supported.

     

    You can use these programs for capture:

    WinDV   WinDV

    HDVSplit   HDVSplit 0.77 beta

    Thank you Peru Bob I will use them if needs be, but why do they have a drop down menu whch says capture from a camcorder ? Maybe as you say not HDV, but it specified it some where or so I thought anyway.
