"Capture device off line" message when attempting to add additional clips to existing project in Premiere Pro CS5.5.2.
Previous capture was accomplished, but, then when trying to add additional clips from same device it failed.
All 40 minutes of some 185 clips was originally captured using Sony Vegas Moviemaker Platinum 11, with no errors. The additional mt2 clips were then successfully imported into Premiere Pro after indexing and conforming the clips, and they play perfectly well and of a high quality in CS5.5.2 at 1440 x 1080i.
Why would the Capture device be off line , when no physical alteration has been made to the equipment ?
