Using the VidCap Demonstration

Program

Gateway has included Microsoft® VidCap on your Gateway Solo

Multimedia Notebook. VidCap is a video capture utility program that

lets you display and capture video (single frame or video stream) from

the Composite Video In port.

You cannot edit video using VidCap. You can purchase a video editing

package from a software retailer.

To use VidCap:

1. Connect the Video Out port of your external source, such as a

video camera, to the Composite Video In port on your notebook.

2. Connect the Audio Out port, if available, of your external source

to the Line In port on your notebook.

3. Press FN+F7 until TV IN appears in the VIDEOSRC in the upper

left corner of your screen.

4. Click the Start button, then click Programs, Video Capture, and

Microsoft VidCap to start the program.

5. Play your external video source. Adjust the display if necesary.

The default file name is always the last name specified. Select

Set Capture File from the File menu and change the file name

before you capture the video to avoid overwriting a previous

video capture.

10. The first time you use VidCap, the Set File Size dialog box

opens.

Set the amount of hard disk drive space you want the capture

file to use, then click OK. A window opens asking if you want

You can set the your file size equal to the amount of free disk

space. However, we do not recommend that you use the total

amount of free space. If you do, you will have to either delete

your capture or other existing data to regain free space on the

hard drive for other applications.

11. Click OK to begin capturing frames.

12. Right click anywhere in the VidCap window to stop capturing

frames.

To learn more about the program’s capabilities and how to adjust

settings, select Contents from VidCap’s Help menu or press F1 on

your keyboard while running VidCap.
