Share to tape without device control
If your device does not have an IEEE 1394 port and if you do not have a device controller for it, export a movie to it
without using the device control functions built in to Adobe Premiere Elements.
1 Connect your AV DV converter (or digital camcorder if you are using one to make the conversion) to your
computer. Connect its analog audio and video outputs to your recording device.
2 If your device is a camcorder or a deck with more than one set of inputs, set it to record audio and video signals
through the inputs you desire.
3 Turn on the recording device and set it to the Record-Pause mode appropriate for the set of inputs you selected.
4 Start Adobe Premiere Elements and open your project.
5 If the movie contains unrendered clips, render them all.
6 Make sure that your video recording device is on. Ensure that a blank or appendable tape is in the device, and that
the tape’s record protection tab is in a position that allows recording. Cue the tape to the location where you want
to begin recording. Make sure that you have sufficient tape, and are recording at an optimal speed, to record your
entire movie.

Export to analog tape
If you want to record to an analog device, such as a VCR or analog camcorder, you can record from
Adobe Premiere Elements in either of these ways:
•
Connect your analog device to a digitizing capture card or analog-to-digital converter (AV DV converter) which, in
turn, is either installed into an expansion slot in your computer’s motherboard or connected to it via one of its IEEE
1394 ports.
•
Connect your analog device to the analog outputs of a digital device, such as a DV camcorder or deck. Connect the
digital device to your computer, typically via their IEEE 1394 ports.
By using a third-party device controller, it is possible to use the device-control functionality of
Adobe Premiere Elements with analog devices. Typically the device controller would connect to your computer via one
of its serial ports and to your analog device through a LANC, control-S, Panasonic 5-pin (control-M), or RS-422 jack.
