<I can't play back video data from MediaStudio Pro 6.5 VE in
Windows 98 SE
as described in
the “DV output to your camcorder” chapter.
1. It's very likely that you have not installed DirectX 8.X. You can find it on the included
installation CD.
2. To ensure that all of your DirectX 8.X files are current, download the “Video Capture
Update” for DirectX from the Microsoft website:

I've heard about problems related to the file sizes of films. What's the story?”
It's true, restrictions do exist with regard to file sizes. In part, this is due to restrictions in the
AVI format itself. Older, VfW-based software only supports AVI format to a maximum file size
of 2 GB. Current programs based on DirectShow support AVI files of up to 4 GB. The format
has been developed further, however, because even this would only allow a maximum film
length of around 18 minutes for DV. The current OpenDML format for AVI files is only subject to
the restrictions of the file system itself.
·
FAT (Windows 98 SE, ME, 2000)
The maximum file size here is 2 GB (approx. 9 minutes of DV video)
·
FAT 32 (Windows 98 SE, ME, 2000)
The maximum file size here is 4 GB (approx. 18 minutes of DV video)
·
NTFS (Windows 2000, XP)
The maximum file size in NTFS is equal to the partition size.
If you need to edit long videos, we therefore recommend using Windows 2000 or XP.
OpenDML is naturally supported by MediaStudio Pro 6.5 VE.
My recorded video sequences are choppy or skip.
It's very likely that your hard drive is too slow and cannot process the required data
quickly enough. You should defragment your hard drive regularly. If you are using an Ultra
DMA hard drive, be sure that Ultra DMA mode is also enabled in the Device Manager. We
recommend using a separate hard drive which is reserved for your video material. The
temporary folders for MediaStudio Pro 6.5 VE should also be located on this hard drive.
