Splitting scenes

I have the "split scenes" box checked when capturing from old hi8 tapes, but it's still just capturing the whole tape as one two-hour file. Is there another setting somewhere that makes it capture as individual scenes?

the tapes are a bunch of different scenes from different times. I know I've gotten it to record a bunch of different .a i clips before but can't remember how....

thanks!

2 other possible programs (if the old links still work)

I have NOT used either, but many say to try these for SD capture http://windv.mourek.cz/ or http://www.exsate.com/products/dvcapture/

You don't say which version of Premiere Elements you're using, but the capture from tape feature was removed in version 12 -- and has never broken scenes in analog capture. (Hi8 tapes is analog.)

John is right that Scenalyzer can break scenes but the program was discontinued more than a decade ago.

Much also depends on what device you're using to digitize your analog tape.

Hi Steve

it's PE 9 (was in my signature). Thanks for the info. I figured out that the ones that I got to split were actually digital8 tapes. Appreciate all the responses and help. I may check out a few if the links here. This is a great community!

There is a new feature in Premiere Pro that will do that after the long clip is on the timeline. For PrE 9 I don't have any suggestions. Due to the age of that version, I don't know if anyone will remember how that worked a dozen years ago!

I have used http://www.scenalyzer.com/ and it works well, do change the default Fat32 to NTFS setting
-I have NOT used the scene detect function in scenalyzer, so don't know how well it works
