Monitoring a view (Video Monitor 2.0)

The Video Monitor can be used in many ways, such as video monitoring, recording and playback.

•Close– close the Video Monitor

•Message indicator – show whether you have new messages

•Security indicator – show whether security mode is working

•Minimize– minimize the Video Monitor window to an icon on the toolbar

•On top/Not on top– force Video Monitor always on top of the desktop or not.

Click

Recording a Video (Video E-Mail)

The Video E-Mail is your digital recorder. Set the video size and start recording. Amazingly

simple, you will wonder how you ever lived without it. You may record and save the video to a

file or better yet, email it to a friend.

•Size– set video size

•Play– play current captured video

•Pause– pause current video, press play to resume

•Stop– stop playing video or cutting process.

•Record– start recording captured video

•Save– save video in the file

•Email– send compressed video to email

•Setting– set options for video source, recording time limit and compression

Well, this is very important! First, we really like compressed files, right? Compressed files take

up less room and are easy to copy and email. The problem is you have to decompress your video

when you want to view it.

“No problem! I compressed it, thus I can decompress it!”

Yes, you are correct! The problem is, can your friends decompress your video. Imagine you

email your favourite video to a friend. You know he/she will really like your video. Later, you

find out your friend deleted the file because they thought it was corrupted. So, what was the

problem? Simple, your friend did not have the right decompression software.

Therefore, you may attach the player program mmvem.exe while sending the e-mail. This program

decompresses the video and audio data, shows the video on your screen. It is easy to download the

player from our web site if someone cannot open the VEM file created by Video E-Mail program.

Playing with your camera (Video Games)

Do you like video games? Gophers, Black Jack, and Fishing are three popular

games included in this software package. All three work with your camera.

)Important: For best results playing any of these games, move the camera to a position where

you can easily move your hands in front of the camera. Before the game logo appears, the

camera will be calibrated. During the calibration, it is important not to move the camera.

After proper calibration, the camera will be more capable of detecting your hand movements.

Gophers

Requires a camera to play. Object of the game is to hit the gophers. Beware of snakes.

Black Jack

Requires a camera to play. Object of the game is to get 21 or less. Be careful, you have to have

more points than the dealer to win. Same rules as Las Vegas 21.

Fishing

Requires a camera and a mouse to play. Object of the game is to find matching photo cards. Use

the camera to make your own photo cards, and then send your game to a friend.

Making a photo album (Photo EZ)

like date, author, place and other comments. Looking for a certain photo in all your albums?

Search will look for all photos matching your search criteria. In addition, you can apply basic and

special effects to your photos.
