A Video Directory can be selected to specify a default location where Video files will be stored. Multiple Video Options Files can be saved and loaded, making it possible to store customized sets of video parameters that might be used in different situations. For example, one set of options might create high quality, large size AVI format videos. Another might be loaded to produce compact, low resolution WMV CBR format videos to post on a website. Yet another might be used for capturing still image sequences.
When using the Still Image Files Sequence Video Format, the Video and
Audio Compression areas of the screen are replaced with Image Sequence
options. Sequential still images will be saved in the selected Image Files
Format (i.e. jpg, png, tiff, etc.) A Default Images Save Directory
can be chosen by pressing the Select button. Optionally, a new
sub-directory can be created to contain image files for each capture. Image
files will be saved with sequential 8-digit numbers, which can optionally be prefixed
with the current date and time. The Save Only Changed Scenes option will
output an image file only when the display has actually changed, potentially saving
much disk space. Otherwise, images will be saved at the specified Capture
Frames/Second rate. Check the Output Image Sequence Control File
option to create a small file with each capture that contains timing information for
each image frame. The Sequence Control File can be used with the Image Sequence Player to provide much greater control
over the playback of captured Image Sequences. The Default to Use
Intended Time option will play sequences back by default according to the
Intended Times for frames (as recorded in the Sequence Control File),
instead of the Actual Times.
