  Recording Format    


   "Format WMV":img:fs/fswmv.png

   WMV

    - for versions 4,7, and 8 select a video profile

	- for version 9, select a video profile file

   "Format AVI":img:fs/fsavi.png

   AVI

    - with the !VideoCapX interface recording real time, you may choose to record audio as well. For other capture interfaces the audio option is not available.

    Many of the Codecs that appear in the listbox were placed on your system by third-party software for very specific purposes. These codecs are probably not suitable to use for AbelCam Video Save.

    There are codecs on some (most?) systems that seem to be designed for Telecine conversion operations. These codecs should be avoided! When used with AbelCam they do produce a video file but the codec plays around with the embedded timestamps and even drops frames. This is design behaviour on the codec's part: correct for telecine work, not good for AbelCam needs.

    The codecs to avoid have "Cine" in their names. On a clean XP install there is only "Cinepak by Radius". If you've installed 3ed party video editing programs there will be other "Cine*" codecs as well.

    For best results, keep your codec selection "simple": choose a codec that came with Windows. Microsoft Video 1 codec will always work but the quality is not so good. If available, try a !DivX codec or one of the Intel Indeo family. Indeo 5.11 is one that works quite nicely; other Intel Indeo versions are good too.

-Additional to my earlier comment: there are codecs on some (most?) systems that seem to be designed for Telecine conversion operations. These codecs should be avoided! When used with AbelCam they do produce a video file but the codec plays around with the embedded timestamps and even drops frames. This is design behaviour on the codec's part: correct for telecine work, not good for AbelCam needs.
