4. Saving Moving Picture
The 3D image that is rotated, zoomed, and moved can be recorded as a moving picture
with AVI format.
The procedure of saving moving pictures is as follows:
4a.
When clicking the [Create AVI File]
button on the Toolbar, the Save AVI File
dialog opens.
Figure 7.21-6 Save AVI File Dialog
4b.
Specify the name and destination to save, select [Size] and [Frame Rate], and click
the [Save] button.
[Size] can select the width of moving picture and the size of height from 640
480,
320
240, and 120
120 (pixel). [Frame Rate] can select the number of frames
displayed in one second from 30, 24, 12, and 6 (frame/second).
As the number of frames increases, moving picture can be more smoothly played.
When the value of [Size] or [Frame Rate] is large, high-performance PC is required.
Reduce the number of [Size] or [Frame Rate] and save the moving picture again,
when the PC stops while saving.
NOTE
: Moving pictures produce a substantially larger amount of data than normal images.
While the required data capacity varies with the image size of the picture being
recorded, the frame rate, the compression ratio, and recording time, at 640
480,
30 frames, and a default compression ratio, each minute of recording requires
approximately 120 MB; at 640
480, 30 frames, and non-compression, it requires
approximately 1.5 GB. While taking care that the hard disk does not become full,
recorded AVI files should be moved to external media frequently.
