Instructions for recording a video sequence with the DivX 6.4 codec

Use the “Device” menu to specify which video source is to be used. In this case, the high-resolution Lmscope USB C-mount camera is selected.

Choose “Capture AVI” to activate the recording mode in VirtualDub.

In the menu, choose “Video -> Capture Pin” to set the camera properties, such as frame rate, display size, etc.

In the menu, choose “Video -> Capture Filter” to set camera image properties, such as brightness, contrast, etc.

In the menu, select “Video -> Preview” to activate the settings, otherwise no live image is displayed.

The preview image is then displayed.

In the “File” menu, choose “Set capture file” to change the name of the video.

In the “Video” menu, choose “Compression” to select the video codec.

When selecting the DivX codec, more detailed codec properties can be set under “Configure”.

“Stop capture” ends the recording.

To check whether everything has worked properly, view the video sequence with a video player, such as DivX Player, Zoom Player or Windows Media Player.
