Mini-Movies on Your Computer

 

Your “Motion capture” files are stored on the
Pocket PC and your PC as “VID” files. Use the 
supplied NexiCam Tool to convert the VID files into
AVI files that can be viewed using the free Apple
QuickTime® viewer (www.apple.com).

To convert the files, do the following:

(1)

 

Select folder

 

. If the folder with the VID files 

has not already been selected, click the folder 
button (blue “…” on the top right) on your 
PC and explore to the directory which contains
your VID (stored motion capture file for 
NexiCam) files. Then, the location will appear 
in the selected folder box.

(2)

Convert the VID file to AVI

. Double-clicking 

the VID file will convert it to an AVI file. This 
AVI file can now be viewed on your PC with 

applications like QuickTime (www.apple.com).

 

movie files to another folder on the desktop. 

AVI files are placed in the same folder where
VID files are. If the folder is where the ActiveSync
synchronizes files, next ActiveSync process will
attempt to copy those AVI files to the Pocket PC.

To avoid this, it's desirable to move your pictures and

And this will cause a memory issue on the Pocket PC,
because AVI files are substantially larger than VID files.
