4. Can I use PYRO to capture video in formats other than DV?
- Yes, When you create a project you can select to capture the video in
many formats and with a variety of codecs including Indeo, Cinepak or
MPEG-4. Once you are ready to Make Movie, you can save the file as
a QuickTime movie, a Real Streaming video and many other file formats.
We suggest that you capture your video in the format closest to your
target end result. If your intention is to create a streaming video file
for publication on the web, capture the video at a smaller resolution
such as 160 x 120, 192 x 144 or 320 x 240. If you capture using the DV
codec at 720 x 480 and then recompress to a Real Media file, you will
not have a satisfactory result. However, if you capture at 192 x 144
using the Intel Indeo codec, then save it as a Real Media file you will
end up with a very nice video production ready for web publication.
The General rule is to plan ahead and use the capture format that is
best for your end result.
5. If I capture a movie in MPEG format, can I send that video production
back to my camcorder?
- NO. To send captured video back to your camcorder, it must have
been captured using the DV encoder.
6. Can I use the PYRO card and my camcorder for video conferencing with
Microsofts Net Meeting?
- No. Not at this time. For some reason Net Meeting does not see the
PYRO card or your DV camcorder as a video capture device. We are
looking into this.
7. What video capture and editing software works with the PYRO card.
Currently only the Ulead Video Studio software has support for the PYRO
card. In the near future we expect many other applications to have
support for PYRO.
We know that many users would like to see support for Adobe Premiere
and other popular editing applications and we are currently working with
these software companies to provide support for PYRO.
We will post updates and announcements regarding software compatibil-
ity with capture and editing software as they become available.
8. Does PYRO work with NT 4.0?
- No. Not currently. We hope to announce support for NT 4.0 in
the future. We are still in the development process.
