Target & Priority

You should select the target as Gmini 400. You will see a Priority box appear. This control is to allow you to select which feature of the video to be guarded. If for

example you are re-encoding a video ﬁle that is 800x600 in resolution and 30 frames per second, this is beyond the maximum resolution that the Gmini 400 can play. Thus, the MPG4 Translator program will have to decrease the resolution. Choosing LCD optimizes the ﬁnal video format for viewing on the built in LCD screen. Choosing the TV option will optimize the movie to keep the highest possible frame rate. You can see what the size and frame rate will be by looking at the Video Image Size: Destination parameters. When choosing TV, it is understood that the output will be optimized for a television, and not the built-in screen.

Start

Click on Start and the program will call Virtual Dub to start processing the video. Depending on the power and speed of your computer, this could take real time (a 60 minute long video re-encoded in about 60 minutes) or much longer. As shown to the left, you will see the progress as it processes the video ﬁle. If the Start button is grayed out, it would be for one of two reasons. 1) The source ﬁle is not a true AVI ﬁle. Even if the ﬁle name ends with

.avi, the internal ﬁle data determines if it is truly an AVI ﬁle. 2) The Virtual Dub program was not located when MPG4 Translator was

started up. Close the program, restart it, and make sure you locate the Virtual Dub program.
