to capture your video to an
.m2v file for DVD authoring using Adobe Encore. For
details about specific limitations when capturing to Matrox . m2v files, see “Notes
about capturing to Matrox .m2v files” on page 80 .

2 From the Capture Format list, select Matrox AVI to capture to an .avi file,
or Matrox M2V to capture to an .m2v file.
