Specifying your capture format settings

$

File Type

Specifies the type of audio files to be captured:

AAC

Captures AAC audio to separate

.aac

files (for Matrox

.264

files

only).

WAV

Captures PCM audio to separate

.wav

files. For Matrox

.mp4

files, stereo AAC audio will also be embedded in the

.mp4

file.

Matrox MP4

Captures stereo AAC audio that is embedded in the

Matrox

.mp4

file (separate

.wav

files will not be created).

¦

Note

When capturing to a Matrox

.mp4

file with simultaneous capture to a

Matrox MPEG-2 I-frame

.avi

file, stereo audio will be embedded in the

.mp4

and

.avi

files. When capturing to a Matrox

.avi

file only, audio is always

captured to separate

.wav

files, and the channels that you choose to save to the

first stereo

.wav

file or first two mono

.wav

files will be embedded in the

associated

.avi

file.

$

Channel Type

Select

Stereo

to save your captured audio to stereo

files, or

Mono

to save your captured audio to mono files. This is set to

Stereo

for embedded AAC audio in Matrox

.mp4

files.

$

Format

Select the format for your captured audio (

16-bit

or

24-bit

).

$

AAC bit rate

For AAC audio, drag the bit rate slider to select the bit

rate (in kilobits per second) that you want for your captured audio.

$

From the

Filename

lists, select which stereo pairs or mono channels you

want to capture for each file.

When capturing to a Matrox

.mp4

file with only embedded AAC audio,

you can select one stereo pair to be embedded in the

.mp4

file (only one

Filename

list will be available). When capturing to a Matrox

.mp4

file

with separate

.wav

files, the channels that you choose to save to the first

stereo

.wav

file or first two mono

.wav

files will be embedded in the

associated

.mp4

file, and the associated

.avi

file if you’re

simultaneously capturing to a Matrox MPEG-2 I-frame

.avi

file.

When capturing to separate

.aac

or

.wav

files, you can select up to four

stereo channels or up to eight mono channels, depending on the type of
audio being captured. Select

None

for the particular files that you

don’t want, or click the

D

(default) button for each

Filename

list if you

want to capture only channels 1 and 2. When Matrox MXO2 saves
separate audio files, it assigns a

.Stereo

or

.Mono

suffix to the base

name of the associated video file. For example, if you’re capturing to
separate

.wav

files and your video file is named

MyFile.001.264

, the

associated stereo audio files will be named

MyFile.001.Stereo1.wav

,

MyFile.001.Stereo2.wav

, etc.

3

Under

Automatic File Switch

, you can indicate whether you want the

capture to automatically switch to the next clip after a specified time or file
