INTRODUCTION
What is video capture software ?
Video capture software is a type of application program that allows you to capture video images from camcorders and VCRs and store them in personal computers running under the WindowsT operating system. These images can be transferred from the video source to the computer via a standard RS-232C communication interface. By processing the captured images with commercially available image editing software, you can create your own unique and highly personal illustrations and graphics for incorporation into everything from postcards to newsletters and Internet homepages. What’s more, you can also use your computer to edit your original video recording and produce a fun-to-watch, professional-looking video pro­gramme.
What is JLIP ?
JLIP* stands for Joint Level Interface Protocol, a new communication protocol which allows AV units equipped with a JLIP terminal to be controlled by a personal computer.

AUTOMATIC CAPTURE
Automatic video capture is available only when a JLIP-compatible video source unit is con­nected. There are two types of automatic capture: Program mode and Interval mode. You can save time in either mode because, once the initial settings have been stored or you have decided what pictures to capture, the subsequent capture process is carried out automatically.
PROGRAM CAPTURE
In the Program Capture mode, select the images you want to capture, and the JLIP Video Capture Docking Station will automatically capture and transfer the images to your computer.
Preparation
•Make sure all units are properly connected (
Z p. 12).
•Insert a tape into the video source unit. Click "Image Format" in "Set-up" and select "Field Picture" in the Capture Mode (

•This completes picture format setting.
•This setting takes effect the next time you use the capture function.
Picture Data Format
JPEG (9. jpg)
This is the default setting. If you do not set Picture Format, image data is captured in this format.
JPEG (Joint Photographic Expert Group) is a leading standard defining the compression and decompression of still color pictures.
The quantity of transferred data appears smaller because the images are compressed. This results in a shorter transfer time.
Bitmap (9. bmp)
Transfer time is longer when you use this format because there is no data compression. The benefit is that picture quality is maintained with no deterioration.
Bitmap is a data format representing characters and graphics with combinations of pixels. Full image data resolution is 768 x 552 pixels with 16.77 million colours (24-bit colour). Index image data resolution is 80 x 60 pixels with 16.77 million colours (24-bit colour).
Capture Mode
Frame Picture
This is the default setting. If you do not set Picture Format, images are captured in this
mode.
Since a frame consists of two overlapping 1/50 sec. images (one 1/25 sec. image forms a
field), it is unstable when capturing fast-moving motion pictures.
Field Picture
While a field contains only half the data of a frame — meaning that vertical resolution is
half that of a frame — images captured from a fast-moving motion picture are more stable
than when captured with "Frame Picture".

TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem
No effect when clicking the Input Select/Memory buttons.
The video equipment image is not displayed on the connected TV.
The video unit does not operate when "Window" — "VCR" in the menu bar and "VCR" in the "VCR" opera­tion window are clicked.
Reverse Slow Play and Forward Slow Play not available in "VCR" operation window.
The"VCR" operation window display shows a different operation from what the video unit is actually doing.
On-screen display of video unit is stored in memory.
Counter display appears in the image display box even when there is no tape in the video unit.
Cause
v The windows do not change during transfer
or compression of index image/full image data.
v The video is displayed on the LCD screen of
the attached GR-DVM1. It is not possible to check the images on the computer.
v When video equipment is connected to the
CAPTURE EXT IN/PRINTER connector, its video is displayed on the LCD screen of the GR-DVM1.
v The counter display in the "VCR" operation
window turns blue.
v Is your video unit compatible with JLIP ?
Only JLIP-compatible units can be operated. If you are using a JLIP-compatible unit and it still won’t work, check to make sure that it is correctly connected.
v Is the video unit selected in "Select Unit" ?
Select correctly.
v Initialize JLIP. v Make sure the video unit is turned on.
v These are available only when the video
unit has a Slow Play function.
v Slow Play in the VCR operation window
automatically switches to Play after approximately 20 seconds.
v In some cases, the video unit may continue
slow-motion playback even when the "VCR" operation window changes from Slow Play to Play. Check your video unit’s instruction manual for details.
v If your video unit has an onscreen display,
turn it off.

Problem
Cannot capture video data with the desired counter number.
Counter cannot be reset.
Program capture suddenly stops.
After finishing video capture, the video file remains in the JCPT folder (where the program run file is contained).
JLIP initialization not possible.
With Video capture/ Transfer done in Automatic Transfer mode, the captured image looks like two pictures laid one upon another.
Cause
v There may be a slight difference between
the counter of the video image that you want to capture and the Index image data/ Full image data captured in the computer. This is not a malfunction.
v Counter reset is not available with digital
camcorders.
v When you start program capture at the
beginning of the tape, the video unit stops playback, ending program capture. Start video capture about 20 seconds after the point where the recording begins.
v If you want to erase the file because of
limited hard disk space, start the program once then close it. The video remaining in the JCPT folder will be cleared.
v Make sure that the IRQ (Interrupt ReQuest)
is not being used by another device.
v COM port selection is wrong. Confirm the
COM port number and execute JLIP initialization again.
v In this case, video capture is not possible
using the "Frame Picture" setting. Change the setting to "Field Picture" and try video capture again.

The monitor displays of the application software illustrated in this manual may differ from those you are actually viewing depending on the operating environment of your computer.
Operation will be significantly slower when used in an environment other than that recom­mended (page 14). While basic VCR operations such as playback and fast-forward are available, a "transmis­sion error" may occur in some models during video transfer. In this case, start the software again, and turn the power of the Video Capture Docking Station off and on.
