Mike - you say that you're attempting to capture VHS yet you mention that you're connecting "via S-VHS" (although you mean S-Video). Is the source VHS or S-VHS? The Intensity Shuttle is fussy about which input is which because, in my experience, it won't accept a standard (Composite Video) VHS input over an S-Video (YC Component Video) connection.
If you're connected properly, then - as Tony says above - you need to ensure that the settings as determined in the Blackmagic Desktop Video Utility (in "Applications") must exactly match those set in the Preferences pane within Media Express. I would, by the way, get things working in Media Express first, after which you can then test the process in Premiere. Make sure that Premiere is not active (use "Force Quit" if necessary) when trying to connect Media Express with the hardware otherwise you'll get a conflict.
Blackmagic Teranex 2D, Ultrastudio Express, Intensity Shuttle (Thunderbolt), Two H.264 Pro Recorders (Mac OSX) & lots of old VTRs used for digital archiving of legacy video formats for major libraries, broadcasters, universities and public archives.
