SELECTING A PICTURE FORMAT

Under "Image Format", you can specify the full image format and the capture mode.

At the menu bar,

click "Set-up" — "

Image Format".

•The "Image Format" window

appears.

Select format.

•There are two different settings available: "JPEG ( bmp)". Refer to "Picture Data Format" below for details.

TRANSFER DATA

The full image can be captured and transferred in two different formats.

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 size of transferred image is 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 resolution is 640 x 480 pixels with 16.77 million colors (24-bit color). Index image resolution is 80 x 60 pixels with 16.77 million colors (24-bit color).

. jpg)" and "Bitmap (9.

Select capture mode.

•There are two different settings avail-

able: "Frame Picture" and "Field Picture". Refer to "Capture Mode" below for details.

Click "OK".

•This completes picture format setting.

•This setting takes effect the next time you use the capture function.

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 1/60 sec. images (one 1/30 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".

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" ?

TROUBLESHOOTING

(cont.)

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.
