Capturing Video and Audio
Still images. You can capture full-color, 24-bit-per-pixel still images
from your camcorder or television, save them on your computer’s hard
disk, and print them. The images are placed on the clipboard, or you can
display them in their own window as “thumbnails” (miniature images).
ATI-TV saves still images as Windows-standard bitmaps (.bmp). It also
supports most industry-standard graphics file formats, so you can insert
the images into reports, presentations, letters, and other documents, to add
impact to training applications and presentations.
Full-motion video. You can capture a stream of full-motion video plus
audio from your video source and save it as an .AVI file on your
computer’s hard disk. You also have the option of capturing only audio —
uncheck the Capture Video box in the Capture dialog (see Capture in
“Setting up ATI-TV” on page 3-5.)
