USING ADOBE PREMIERE PRO
User interface
2 Do any of the following, and then click OK:
• Select Automatically Save Projects, and type the number of minutes you would like between saves.
• For Maximum Project Versions, enter the number of versions of a project file you want to save. For example, if you
type 10, Premiere Pro saves the ten most recent versions.
3 Click OK.
Note: Premiere Pro will only execute an auto save when there are unsaved changes in the currently opened project. This
also applies when the program is in the background or minimized. The potential consequence for leaving a project open
with unsaved changes for a long enough period of time is that eventually all of the auto save versions will become identical,
wiping out potentially useful versions to roll back to. Adjust this preference according to your workflow or close Premiere
Pro when you will be working on other applications for an extended period of time.
Capture preferences
Controls how Premiere Pro transfers video and audio directly from a deck or camera. (None of the other project
settings options affect capturing.) The contents of this panel depend on the editing mode. If you're capturing DV
footage, use the default DV capture settings. When DV/IEEE 1394 Capture is the selected capture format, no options
are available because the options are automatically set to the IEEE 1394 standard. Additional capture formats and
options appear if you install other software, such as software included with a capture card certified to be compatible
with Premiere Pro.
Note: For P2 DVCPRO 50 and P2 DVCPRO HD projects, the Capture Format setting is not relevant, because the assets
are captured and recorded directly to the P2 card as digital files by the camera.
