Capturing Video and still images

Full-motion video. The Digital VCR lets you capture a clip of full-motion video

plus audio from your video source and save it as an MPEG or AVI file on your computer’s hard disk. See Digital VCR on page 39 for details.

Still images. Capture full- color, 24-bit-per-pixel, still images from television, and MPEG clips (see Video CD on page 61), save them, and print them. The images are placed

in the Stills Gallery, which saves them as Windows-standard bitmaps (.bmp) or a wide variety of standard formats.

The Stills Gallery also supports most industry-standard graphics file formats, so you can insert the images into reports, presentations, letters, and other documents, to add impact to training applications and presentations. See Stills Gallery on page 55 for details.

Note

If the program is restricted by Parental Control, still capture is disabled (see Parental Control on page 33).
