INITIALIZATION

INITIALIZING JLIP

The first time you start the Video Capture software, JLIP initialization is required. This sets which of the computer’s COM ports (connector into which the RS-232C cable is plugged) is connected to the JLIP Video Capture Docking Station. The initialization window automatically appears the first time you start the software after installation. Do not forget to carry out this JLIP initialization procedure. The JLIP must be initialized again whenever you connect a new image source or other unit to the JLIP Video Capture Docking Station.

Start the JLIP Video Capture software.

The “JLIP Initialization” screen automatically appears.

Select “COM Port”.

•COM1 through COM4 ports are available. Check to see which COM port is connected to the JLIP Video Capture Docking Station and select it.

Select “Transfer Rate”.

•Normally select 38400.

•38400 may not be available on some computers. When transmission errors take place during use, switch to 19200 or 9600. Image data transmission will be slower at these speeds.

Click “OK”. Call up the “JLIP Initialization” window and check the connected units.

SELECTING A PICTURE FORMAT

Under “Image Format”, you can specify the full image data format and the capture mode.

PICTURE FORMAT SETTING

Select capture mode.

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.

Open the menu bar and click “Set-up” — “Image Format”.

•The “Image Format” window appears.

Select format.

•There are two different settings available: “JPEG (

9. jpg)” and “Bitmap

(

9. bmp)”. Refer to “Picture Data

Format” below for details.

TRANSFER DATA

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

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”.

Cause

v Does the JLIP Video Producer Software or

the JLIP Movie Player Software run ? The JLIP Video Capture Software cannot run together with it.

If the camcorder is attached to the JLIP Video Capture Docking Station with the battery pack installed or with the AC Power Adapter/Charger attached, it is impossible to operate the camcorder using the computer.

v These buttons do not function.

v The counter display in the “VCR” operation

window turns blue.

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 Slow Play in the VCR operation window

automatically switches to Play after approximately 10 to 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 It is not possible to capture the on-screen

display (date, time cord etc.) into the computer.

v When capture video data from a powered-

on camcorder with no tape loaded, a counter display may appear in the image display box. Images corresponding to the displayed counter number can no longer be caputred.

Problem

JLIP Video Capture Software does not work.

Operating the camcorder (capturing video images through the computer etc.) is not possible.

No effect when clicking the Input Select/Memory buttons.

The video unit does not operate when “Window” — “VCR” in the menu bar and “VCR” in the “VCR” operation window are clicked.

The “VCR” operation window display shows a different operation from what the video unit is actually doing.

On-screen display of video unit is not stored in memory.

Counter display appears in the image display box even when there is no tape in the video unit.

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.

v Change the system font size of the

computer.

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.

The index image is not size of its image display box.

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 (

Z pg. 18).

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, first unplug the AC Power Adapter/Charger’s power cord from the AC outlet, then plug it back into the AC outlet, and run the software again.
