You didn't list your MacOS version but if you have a Thunderbolt 3 model then we can assume it's a pretty recent OS (Catalina/Big Sur/Monterrey). The issue is that Apple actually deprecated the DV/Firewire capture protocol (that's not the right terminology but that's how I'm naming it); Premiere still has that option but it doesn't work as well as it used to. You've seen that it works in iMovie and it will also work in Quicktime, but beyond that the support is limited. Capturing DV now in Premiere is just a pain and it will not improve. So to be honest you can use the other apps to capture otherwise you'll just be tearing your hair out trying to get it to work. I've even resorted to using an older Mac and OS so that I can run Final Cut Pro 7 to capture DV from my DSR-11, and it works great. Just make like 2009 and you'll have no problems. 🙂
