Recording Video and still images

Full-motion video. The Personal Video Recorder lets you record a clip of full-motion video plus audio from your video source and save it as an MPEG, AVI, ATI VCR (proprietary ATI video format), or WMV (Windows Media Video for streaming and download-and-play applications) file on your computer’s hard disk. See Personal Video Recorder on page 39 for details.

Still images. Capture full- color, 24-bit-per-pixel, still images from television, 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-standardgraphics 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 65 for details.
