1. Fixed
. Switch video source will cause application hang at Windows 2000.
. VCD stream has data lost problem at some burning tools, ex. WinOnCD 3.5.
. Audio compensation has noisy sound.
2. Note
. The registry key value of "MPJ_AUDIO_VIDEO_SYNC" at path
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Winbond\WMPEG200\CaptureConfig" is changed
to "0". This won't affect the W99PCI-V200F but W99PCI-AV200F only. It makes
audio capture won't be affected when video out of sync occurred.
The registry key value of "MuxFreeRun" at path
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Winbond\WMPEG200" is kept at "0" no matter
W99PCI-V200F or W99PCI-AV200F. The system muxer will handle the AV
synchronization issue.

1. Enhanced
. Support the "Audio Adjustment Periodically" mechanism to improve the
AV synchronization.
. Support two PCM playback methods for W99PCI-AV200F application. It is
choosed by setting registry key "PlayPCMMethod" to "1" or "0". Method 0
is the same as previous version. Method 1 can solve some sound card can
not hear any sound at recording mode.
The default value is "0".
2. Note
. When you are using W99PCI-AV200F application, please turn off the
"Audio Adjustment Periodically" mechanism by setting entries,
"Adjust_PAL_Audio_Sample" and "Adjust_NTSC_Audio_Sample", at
Win200F.ini to "0".

1. Enhanced
. Support different file formats, BMP, JPEG, and MPEG, for snap shot.
. Support full size, 704*480 for NTSC and 704*576 for PAL, snap shot
function.
. Move the partial registry path string setting from Windows registry key
"DIR" to entry "RegistryPath" at Win200f.ini. The registry key "DIR" is
eliminated.
. Support video or audio only elementary stream capture.
2. Drawbacks
. The video or audio only system layer stream capture is disabled this
version. Customer can open it by modifying Win200F UI module source code
and referring RECCTL_LiveVideoEncoding API at RecCtl module. We will
enable it next version.
3. Note
. WinMPEG-200F will show the captured video frame only in the BMP format for
snap shot. But for other formats, the captured video frame will be saved as
a file only. The temporary files will be overwrited when application restart
again. Customer should rename it as soon as possible.
. In Win200F.ini, if the value of the Key "Quality_Enable" is 0, the Constant
Quality setting will be disabled. If you want to enable this setting, you
can only set the value of the key "Quality_Enable" is 1. The default value
is 0.
