Using Digital Video Files
With commercial video capture hardware and application software, you can plug any
video device, including VCRs, camcorders, and laser disc players into your NEC Versa
notebook and record motion graphics to your hard drive. Use the system’s USB port or
PC Card slot (depending on the video capture hardware and software that you purchase
separately) to plug in the external video device. You can even use a video frame
grabber and store a stream of grabbed stills on your hard disk!

illustrate a concept, drive home an important point, or command attention. Graphics
animation can add punch to a presentation with an animated illustration, a flashing
arrow, or a flying logo.
