PowerVCR will automatically determine the CPU Type. The Instruction Set
Options depend on the CPU type, which are from two possible
microprocessor manufacturers:
• Intel (MMX and Streaming SIMD Extension)
• Advanced Micro Devices (3D Now and Enhanced 3D Now)
Info: Instruction sets optimize and regulate multimedia tasks and
configuration.
Be sure that all possible selections are checked for optimal recording.
Editing and Converting Video Files
Not only does PowerVCR possess astounding recording features and
breathtaking recording quality, it also allows you to edit all the files that you
have recorded or boxes full of VHS tapes stashed away in your private
collection. PowerVCR cuts and trims out unwanted footage of any given file or
combines and merges video clips or files to resemble a feature length movie.
If you have in your possession AVI video files that are clogging up a lot of
disk space, there is no need to fret because PowerVCR's converting function
saves you all the disk space you need, for it converts large and uncompressed
AVI files into MPEG format.
Note:
This device can only record and edit from TV input sources only.
Editing
There is a host of ways to go about editing your video files. You may trim or
merge them in any fashion you like, but be sure to make use of the Step
Left/Right Trim functions for precise editing.
