Thank you all chaps

If managed to find the MC DV codec and and the information you mentioned:

-------------------------

Download the Main Concept Demo Codec from: www.mainconcept.com. If you like
their latest version after testing this, buy it.

Create a Folder on your C drive named QCAP.

Move the Qcap.dll from your System32 directory to the Qcap folder you just
created, then back up qcap.dll to a floppy for safety.

Now, do a search on your C drive for qcap.dll and make sure it ONLY comes up
in the QCAP folder you just created. If it shows up anywhere else DELETE it.
You can always move it back to the system 32 directory where it belongs if
you decide you don't want this fix enabled.

NOTE -- Win 2k users: Make sure you enabled the registry tweak or qcap.dll
will keep getting copied back to your system32 directory automatically
courtesy of SFC and Microsoft.

Install the Main Concept codec, you can test this with the Demo off their
site.

Copy the presets from the zip file below into your Premiere settings
directory. We have supplied 4: NTSC/PAL Interlaced and NTSC/PAL Progressive.
They start with DVMC------

Start Premiere 6. Select one of the supplied presets.

Go into settings. Make sure it says DV Playback.

Go to video settings and there magically you will find all the codecs. The
Main Concept codec should be selected. Although you can at this point select
other codecs they will most likely NOT work with the Premiere DV module. All
the other settings will match proper DV settings.

Make sure you NEVER check always recompress.

In the Video Settings hit the Configure tab for the MainConcept codec and
make sure all the radio buttons are DE-SELECTED as selecting some of them
have caused some output issues. Deselecting them all gives the highest
quality compression anyway.

Now you can go into the Premiere capture settings and set them up. Save the
settings as you wish, preferably some other name so you will always have a
master template.

Note: If you try and adjust capture settings without qcap.dll in the
system32 directory, you will get the cannot connect to Capture Device error
message.

You're all done.
