Set options on the Logging pane of the Capture panel. Adobe Premiere Pro uses the current data in the Setup and Clip Data sections as defaults for subsequent logged clips. If you want to log a series of clips into the same bin with similar logging data, save work by specifying clip data before you start logging the series. When you click the Log Clip button, a dialog box appears so that you can accept or change the clip data.

In the Clip Data section, specify a tape name. Adobe Premiere Pro asks for this name every time you begin batch capturing.

The Clip Name in the Clip Data section progresses in numerical increments automatically. For example, if you want to number a series of clips with clip names starting with Car Chase, enter Car Chase 01, making sure that the clip name ends with the number. Subsequent logged clips default to the next number, such as Car Chase 02.

You can change Capture panel settings at any time. For example, if you see the action changing as the tape plays back, you can get ready to capture the new upcoming action by selecting a different bin to log subsequent clips into or by typing a different name for Description or Scene. You don’t have to stop the tape as you change settings.

You can operate the device and log clips using the keyboard. See the tool tips for Capture panel controls, or choose Edit > Keyboard Customization to view or change the shortcuts.

You must click Log Clip to create a new offline file. This pauses the tape as you confirm the clip data for the new offline file.
