3D Desktop with Windows Flip 3D function
VirtualDub is a free program for
capturing and editing videos. Using “Direct Show” drivers, videos can
be recorded from any source directly onto the hard drive. Once
recorded, VirtualDub can be used to edit the video sequence as desired.
The program offers numerous functions and is simple to use.
The following short instructions describe how to record a film sequence
from a video source onto the hard drive.
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”.
Choose “Capture video” to start the
video recording.
“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.
