IMAGEMIXER

The ImageMixer software possesses a variety of functions. Its primary applications are described below.

Editing your own original movies

ImageMixer allows you to capture video from a camcorder, rearrange scenes, add special effects when
changing scenes, insert still images, and otherwise freely edit your own movies. ImageMixer also allows you
to add audio and background music.
The edited movie is stored in MPEG1 format, which provides a comparatively smaller file size. This makes it
more convenient to distribute it to your friends, for example, expanding the range of possibilities for which
you can use your camcorder.

Capturing video from tape
Connect the camcorder to the PC with a USB cable. ImageMixer can then convert the video on tape to
MPEG1 format and store it in the PC.

Loading still images from a memory card
Connect the camcorder to the PC with a USB cable. ImageMixer can then load still images from a memory
card.

Capturing audio from a microphone or CD
ImageMixer can record audio from the PC’s microphone. Because the recording can be made while playing
the video back at the same time, it is easy to add audio that is in sync with previously recorded video.
ImageMixer can also add music from a CD as background music for your movie.

Editing still images

ImageMixer can adjust the brightness and contrast of still images and extract only the necessary portions.
ImageMixer also has a variety of functions for correcting eye color tones that are too red.
In addition, ImageMixer allows you to freely lay out still images, pictures, text, and other elements to create
your own postcards, CD-R labels, etc.
