Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the InVideo/PCIª video
frame grabber system. The system consists of a card
that you install in your PCI slot and some very
exciting software. On a very basic level, weÕve
designed InVideo/PCIª to accomplish two simple
tasks:
•Grab full color still images from a camcorder, VCR, or
laser disk player.
•Grab full color digital clips from a camcorder, VCR, or
laser disk player.
When used as part of FOCUS Enhancement's
InVideoª Conference package, InVideo/PCI is a great
tool for videoconferencing.
Minimum System Requirements
The following is the minimum system configuration
required for the operation of the InVideo/PCIª system.
1. 486 processor or better with an available PCI
expansion slot.
2. A hard disk drive and CD ROM drive for
installation.

3. At least 8 Megabytes of RAM.
4. Microsoft Windows 3.1 or later.
5. A Video Graphics Array (VGA) Adapter, capable
of displaying at least 640 by 480 at 256 colors.
6. A video camera, camcorder, video tape player, or
any video source that puts out a composite or S-
Video signal.
Suggested System Requirements
Although not absolutely required, it is suggested that
you consider the following hardware/software to
increase the usability of InVideo/PCIª:
1. A PCI-based VGA adapter that supports ÒDirect DrawÓ for high
performance preview and at least 16 bit color.
2. Windows 95.
3. 16 Megabytes of memory or more for increased performance.
4. A fast Intel Pentium CPU.

Using the CineMaker Software
Once you've installed both the hardware and the
software, you're ready to capture your first image.
The setup program installs an application called
CineMaker, a quick and easy application for capturing
single images and movies. Begin by launching the
CineMaker program.
Setup
If you're running CineMaker for the first time, select
the Video Source menu from the Options menu.
Here, you are able to choose the type of video
connected to your InVideo/PCIª. You can choose the
10
video standard:
•NTSC: Used in North America and the Orient.
•PAL: Used in most other parts of the world, including
most of Europe.
•SECAM: Used in select areas of the world such as
France and some Eastern European countries.
If you don't know which video standard you're using,
click the Detect button to automatically determine it.
You can choose the type of connection for the video:
•COMPOSITE: Also known as the RCA connector, this is
the most common video connector. Use this for the
View All PC system and most camcorders and VCRs.
•S-VIDEO: Provides a cleaner video signal than
composite. YouÕll find this connector on Hi8
camcorders and SuperVHS VCRs. Sometimes called
the Y/C connector.
The other controls in the Video Source window
include:
CENTERING & WIDTH: Use the centering control to
remove black bars from the sides of your image.
Slight differences between video sources may cause
the preview and capture image to be offset and black
bars may appear around the edges. Centering
addresses this issue. If you adjust the centering and
black bars still appear around the border of the image,
increment the width control.
