Installation Procedure ====================== Please refer to the User's Guide for instructions on how to install the VideOh! PCI AVC-2410. Video Editing Tips ================== Use Sonic MyDVD to capture your videos onto your hard drive, trim your videos, and create VCDs and DVDs. Use ArcSoft ShowBiz to do advanced editing of your videos and add effects like transitions, titles, and music. Known Issues ============ Installation ------------ - Uninstalling MyDVD will not uninstall ArcSoft ShowBiz. You must uninstall ArcSoft ShowBiz separately, using Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel. - Windows 2000 only — An English version of WinDVR will be installed if your computer is running an English version of Windows 2000, even if the operating system has been modified to support a language other than English. Previewing and Capturing of Video ---------------------------------- - If you have problems previewing audio and video in the capture window, Updating the video and/or audio drivers for your video card and/or audio card might correct this issue. Check the manufacturer's web site for driver updates for your video and/or audio card. - If you are using a multi-mode PAL/NTSC VCR to do long-term captures and you notice that the audio and video are out of sync, Adaptec recommends that you do multiple smaller captures instead of one large one. - When you open WinDVR, the last channel displayed during the previous session will appear in the Display Window, even if it's a parental locked channel. To avoid this problem, do not close WinDVR while viewing a locked channel; switch to an unlocked channel before closing WinDVR. - Preview Volume for WinDVR will seem softer when compared to the preview volume of MyDVD. This will not affect the playback volume of captured video that has been written to disc. - Once a scheduled item has been recorded, that schedule entry can not be edited or used again. A new entry must be created for each item that is to be scheduled. Editing Video and Burning of Media ---------------------------------- - When a clip is edited in ShowBiz and is brought to MyDVD, both ShowBiz and MyDVD will be minimized and will appear in the Taskbar. To maximize the MyDVD window, click on the MyDVD Taskbar item. - In MyDVD, when you use the Direct-to-Disc feature for capturing and burning, you must specify a time limit on the Set Record Length clock.Download Driver Pack
