Capture panel disappeared from Premiere Pro 2022 - mac M1

I just installed PPro 2022 on a mac M1 mini with OS Monteray. I have a Black Magic Ultrastudio 4k mini which is confirmed to be compatible both Premier and the Mac m1 mini and OS Monteray. 

Strangely, the capture panel is completely missing from the WORKSPACE dropdown menu in Premiere! Equally weird, it is also missing from the FILE drop down menu. Like, an entire workflow function has gone from Premiere. 

I have the exact same version of Premiere 2022 (2022.2) at home on an iMac mid 2017 running OS Catalina and guess what. The Capture panel is there in WORKSPACE and FILE dropdowns. 

What is going on ? Am I imagining things ?

    Actually, found it:

    https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/kb/premierepro-and-macos-big-sur.html

    There are some differences in functionality and some features are not available with Premiere Pro on Apple M1.

    • Capture workflows (DV, HDV, third-party capture support, and device control)

     

    So this appears to be a known issue. You can run the non M1 version to capture your footage, then import into the M1 version if you prefer to use that one for now.

    I use the same Black Magic device and just came across this issue on an M1 Mac. I discovered that if you open Premiere using Rosetta the capture window is there. I have not been able to test a capture yet but it appears all of the features are there. I mostly use the 4k mini to capture an sdi signal so I'm hoping the device actually works on on M1 Mac. Hope this helps.

    This works! I'm using an M1 Mac Pro with Premeire Pro 23.2. We have archive footage on DVCAM tape that I needed to capture. Using a Sony DSR-2000 deck and a Black Magic UltraStudio 4K interface.

     

    Thanks for sharing the information, Lounjay!

      After a fruitless search for the
      missing Capture function in Premiere 23.x menues, and an officially documented reason, I reached Adobe support chat.

       

      The reason…
      Adobe stopped support for Capture via FireWire after OS Catalina!

      (my configuration, MacOS Monterey, MacBook Air M1 2020, FireWire external device is not supported)

       

      However:

      * M1 Macs DO support FireWire legacy devices for current versions off Monterey and Ventura.
      * iMovie and QuickTime still support FireWire externals
      * Premiere DOES import clips from both


      Solution Workflow:
      Capture clips to iMovie. Import clips to Premiere 23.x projects.

        I tried the Intel version Premiere Pro on Mac Studio M1, camera control function is workking but there ise no video connection, so capture don't work. I have a rookie question is there any difference between capturing with premiere/final cut then capturing with imovie for miniDV tapes?

        Capture is being withdrawn from all versions of Premiere soon.

        Can you try running the Intel version of Premiere 2022 on your M1 Mac and see if the capture panel shows correctly there?

        Thanks for the quick reply Jeff !

        I can try runnign the intel version for sure if I can find it. Is that possible to download from the list of "OTHER versions" in the CReative CLoud App tab ? Also, wouldn't that add other possible issues ?

        Yes, that's where to download it. 

        Remember, the only reason you are installing this version is to test if the capture panel shows correctly. If it does, the reason it is now showing is likely the M1 version vs the Intel one. If it doesn't, then the issue lies elsewhere. We're just troubleshooting at this point, I'm not saying this download will fix your problems.
