CAPTURE
Capturing video (analog capture card
with audio / video jacks or S-video):
1
Hook up your video source device to
your capture card. On some cards, you
also have to connect the audio cables to
your sound card.
2
Use your device’s controls to move
around and find what you want to
capture.
3
Click the Capture video button to begin
recording.
4
When you have recorded what you want,
click the Capture video button again or
press the Esc key to stop capturing.
Capturing DV video:
1
Turn on your camcorder and set it to Play
(or VTR / VCR) mode. See your
camcorder’s manual for specific
instructions.
2
Run Ulead VideoStudio. Then, open a
project and go to the Capture step.
3
Correctly setup the DV plug-in on the
Global commands menu, and then click
the Play button in Ulead VideoStudio.
4
When you get to the part of the video you
want to record, click the Capture video
button in Ulead VideoStudio.
5
Click the Capture video button again (or
press the Esc key) to stop recording.
Tips:
• The Capture menu item is grayed out or unavailable in the Playback mode. Yet, in the Capture
mode if you still encounter the same situation, check whether your video capture hardware is
correctly installed.
• In step 3, a confirmation dialog box appears. Click OK to start actual capture process.
• Delay of capture might occur due to the prompt of confirmation dialog box or the connection
between hardware. To avoid this delay, clear the option “Enable press OK to capture” on the
Capture tab in the Preferences dialog box. Also, rewind your video tape to an earlier point and then
start capturing. Remember that you can always trim the video later in VideoStudio.
• The normal number of dropped frames is zero. If there’s any dropped frame, check if the DMA
setting is enabled. See page 11 for details.
