Superior PC-Based Editor for P2 Systems
Mar 05, 2020 Canopus is an usual company. Back in 1997, it was known to the gaming cognoscenti as a purveyor of the fastest 3dfx Voodoo Graphics cards around, which had 6MB of memory instead of the usual 4MB. The ADVC-100 is the first affordable DV converter that supports locked audio when converting from analog to digital, assuring perfect audio and video synchronization The ADVC-100 features Canopus' award-winning DV codec technology, found in AVID's Xpress DV software and the full line of Canopus DV capture cards.
Does the 'Broadcast' package have much to offer HVX, HDV or HDCAM shooters, especially in comparison to formidable competitors, such as Apple or Avid? In a word, yes. In three words, good golly yes. EDIUS Broadcast has far and away the best P2 integration of any of the major NLE packages. Avid and Apple should both go to 'Canopus School' to learn how tapeless integration should be done. The EDIUS Broadcast integration for P2 is just about perfect; after using Broadcast, I was a lot less satisfied with my newly purchased G5 Mac/FCP system. EDIUS lets you edit straight from the P2 card, import directly to the hard disk, export back to a P2 card in the proper MXF file format and directory structure and maintain the metadata throughout the process. It plays back DVCPRO-HD footage in real time on a laptop that could barely squeak out 2 fps using another popular NLE. There's also real time playback, live 1394 capture, print-to-tape, print-to-card and import-from-card. This is how it should be done, folks! Congratulations to Canopus for hitting this nail squarely on the head. EDIUS Broadcast is the only NLE on the market that supports every mode and frame rate of the HVX200.
EDIUS Broadcast is also about the only NLE (at the time of this writing) that supports HDV 720/24p and 1080/24F and does so very well, capturing straight from the camera and playing back 24p/24F HDV in real time. And while I didn't have an opportunity to test XDCAM, EDIUS Broadcast's excellent P2/MXF and HDV support leave me no doubt that it will excel at XDCAM also.
Canopus did a great job on EDIUS Broadcast. I can't wait to get my hands on version 4.0.

I had this problem with Windows 10 that my Canopus ADVC-55 didn't work straightaway. I tried WinDV and Adobe Premiere and but problem remained. This fixes problem if your capture device doesn't give you any image, and this fix works on Windows 7, 8 and 10.

And thats that! In my case Windows 10 selected Texas Instruments driver by default and for some reason it doesn't work right. This problem has occurred on Windows 7, 8 and 10, but its easy to fix just by selecting different driver. If you find this tutorial helpful, please leave a comment!
