Capturing video

Pinnacle Expression is a video capture program that lets you capture and edit full-motion video, single images, and audio through the IEEE 1394 (also known as Firewire or i.Link) port. To find the location of the IEEE 1394 port, see “Left side” on page 3.

To use Pinnacle Expression:

1 Connect one end of the IEEE 1394 cable to your external source, such as a video camera, and connect the other end of the cable to the IEEE 1394

port on the side of your notebook.

2 Click Start, All Programs, Pinnacle Expression, then click Pinnacle Expression. The program starts.

Important

If Pinnacle Expression is not on your Start menu, install it from the Pinnacle Expression CD. Insert the CD into your CD or DVD drive and follow the instructions in the setup wizard. For more information on using Pinnacle Expression, see its online help and the online guide located on the program CD.
