Color (Colour): High Color (Colour) (16 bits) or superior

• Do not change any screen setting in the Windows "Display Properties"

while running MovieShaker. You must exit MovieShaker before changing
the screen resolution, colors (colours), or Desktop Scheme.

• MovieShaker displays still images with an aspect ratio of 4:3. Still images

with any other aspect ratio will be trimmed (the upper left part) to adjust
the screen size to 4:3 aspect.

• If the movie is captured from a MICROMV device recorded in widescreen

mode (aspect ratio 16:9), its aspect ratio for display on the monitor is 4:3.
Note that, however, it is exported to a MICROMV device with an aspect
ratio of 16:9.

• When you open a project file in MovieShaker, or if you have saved the

interim contents of the Clip tray and Product tray as a project file, do not
move or delete the original files to which the clips on the Clip tray and the
scenes on the Product tray are referring.
