and can capture video files to .avi format.

cess - see Set Capture File below).

) and select Start Capture.
3.
Click OK (the file location will be displayed in the pop-up box) to start capturing the
video, and press Esc to stop the capture.
Set Capture File
Prior to capturing video files you may Set Capture File... To avoid overwriting files
you can go to the Set Capture File.. option in the File menu, and set the file name
and location before capture. Set the name and location then click Open
(you can
choose Cancel to ignore the file size if prompted).
Pre-Allocating File
Space
You may pre-allocate
the file size for the cap-
ture file in the Video
View program.
Pre-allocating space on
the hard disk can im-
prove the capture quali-
ty (particularly of large
capture files), by reduc-
ing the amount of work
the hard disk has to do
in finding space for the
video data as it is being
captured.
