Bundled Software

Videogram Creator

The Videogram Creator software allows you to compress captured video files, embed the Videogram Player inside the file, and play it back on any Windows 3.1x, Win 95 or Windows NT system without installing the Player on the target system. This makes it perfect for sending Videograms through email. The compression is so great that a 1-minute Videogram with the Player fits on a standard, 31/2 -inch, 1.44MB floppy disk.

When to Use Videograms

Videograms are perfect for any situation where you want to share more than just words or you want to share the expe- rience in person but can’t-birthdays; thank you messages; a child’s first steps or words; a motivational speech; a sales call; a product demonstration. You can attach Videograms to email messages, post them to Websites, or create them so that others can stream the Videogram from your Website in real-time. See Chapter 8 for more ideas and examples.
