Audio Type

Select one of these options to indicate the sound optimization.

•Generic - This setting saves the maximum amount of information to reproduce a wide range of sounds and is optimi- zed for music and other demanding audio files. This setting will cause the file to consume more space on the hard

drive.

•Speech - This setting saves less information to reproduce sound optimized for vocal patterns (which require less infor- mation than music). This option also conserves hard drive space.

•No Audio - Use this setting if no sound card is installed in system or if you simply do not want sound saved with the video clip.

Helpful Hints for Sending Videograms

MIME versus UUencode

These are two electronic mail encoding systems. Different e-mail systems use these two methods. Microsoft Exchange pre- dominately uses MIME, while CC Mail and Lotus Notes use UUencode. A Videogram sent in MIME cannot be viewed by someone on a UUencode e-mail system, and vice-versa. However, most e-mail systems now offer the choice of sending options (UUencode or MIME). The easiest way to overcome this obstacle is to ask the person to whom you are sending the e-mail which option they use before you send.

Selecting “Slide”, “240 x 160 (15fps)” or “240 x 120 (7fps)” during Videogram creation will dramatically reduce the file size. In general, most files under 300KB to 1MB will get through your typical internet service provider’s file size limita- tions.

Sending Videograms Without Attaching The Player

This saves approximately 110KB in file size, which can be significant if the Videogram itself is small. This is also good stra- tegy if you send a fair amount of Videograms to one person, since they can install the Player once and view any Videogram file. You can send them the Player (SETUP32.EXE for Windows 95 or SETUP16.EXE for Windows 3.1x in the
