Video Capture from the PC

Video Capture is the process of isolating a single frame (or picture) from media played on video equipment (such as a video camera or VCR) and then converting that frame into an image file on your PC. Once the frame is an image file, it can be saved, printed, faxed, and inserted into other files.

Connecting Your Video Equipment

Before you can begin to capture a video frame, you must first connect your video equipment to the MFC.

To connect your video equipment:

1Connect your video cable to the jack on your video equipment labeled VIDEO OUT.

2Connect the RCA male

plug on the other end of the video cable to the RCA female jack on the front of the MFC.

Capturing An Image

You can access Multi-Function Link® Pro’s TWAIN dialog box from the ScanSoft™ PaperPort® for Brother viewer or from any application that is compatible with TWAIN scanning devices.

Caution

It is important that you hook up your MFC to your computer before you install the software.
