Color QuickCam(tm) for Windows(r) Version 2.0.2 README

5 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW:
1.  We strongly recommend that you turn your computer off anytime
you connect or disconnect the QuickCam from either the parallel
port or the keyboard port.
2.  Don't attach more than one QuickCam (grayscale or color) to a 
computer.  This won't damage your computer but they won't work 
together with this version of the QuickCam software.
3.  If you are a Windows 95 user, your computer may crash if you 
try to run both QuickPICT and QuickMovie at the same time. 
4.  Be sure your monitor is displaying at least 16 bit (high) color.
(See Control Panels:  Displays: Settings in Windows 95 or consult your
manual for Windows 3.1-based computers.)
5.  We are constantly improving our QuickCam software. Updates to
our software can be found on our Web site and other online forums
including America Online (Keyword:  Connectix).

------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.  Things You Should Know
------------------------------------------------------------------------
IF YOU HAVE A GRAYSCALE QUICKCAM the Color Camera installer will 
disable the original QuickCam driver.  You'll have to reinstall 
the original software to use the grayscale camera again.

WHEN RECORDING A MOVIE your on-screen frame rate will appear to 
drop. This is because QuickMovie is making sure that you get the full 
rate saved to disk first; screen updates are secondary to captured 
frame rates. When you play back your saved movie, you will see 
the full frame rate captured by QuickMovie.

TO GET THE FASTEST POSSIBLE FRAME RATE, make sure that your monitor 
depth is set to the depth of the movie being captured.

TO PLAYBACK A MOVIE RECORDED USING VIDEC COMPRESSION ON A DIFERENT
COMPUTER, you will need to install the VIDEC decompression software
(VIDEC.DLL). This software is available on the Connectix Web page and
Connectix online service forums listed below.

DO NOT PLUG THE KEYBOARD POWER ADAPTER into one computer and 
the parallel port connector into a different computer.  Doing 
either will void your warranty.

DO NOT USE THE SCREEN SAVER AND AUTO CAPTURE at the same time.
There is not enough processing power available for the same 
camera to display a full screen moving image while also saving 
a still image to disk.

IF YOU'VE EVER ADDED A PC SPEAKER DRIVER (speaker.drv) to your
system, it is possible your computer will crash if you try to 
use the QuickCam software with it installed.  We highly recommend
uninstalling the PC speaker driver before attempting to use the
QuickCam.

VIDEC COMPRESSION IS NOT AVAILABLE IN QUICKPICT.  It is designed 
primarily for video capture and is available only in QuickMovie. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.  Known Bugs
------------------------------------------------------------------------
IF YOU TAKE A PICTURE TO THE CLIPBOARD USING THOUSANDS MODE (WINDOWS 
3.1 ONLY), you will not be able to view the picture using Microsoft 
Paint or the Clipboard Viewer.  The image is, however, available to 
other applications which support 16 bit images.

If you are a Windows 95 user, your computer may crash if you 
try to run both QuickPICT and QuickMovie at the same time.

3.  How to Contact Connectix Corporation
------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you find problems that occur after QuickCam is installed
that did not occur prior to installation, we want to hear from you.
Please be sure to try to reproduce the problem without any other
applications running in the background.
