Video Capture
The Video Capture program is the launching pad of your project. This is
where you preview and capture video footage. Capturing is the process
of recording video from a camcorder or other devices to a computer’s
hard drive. MediaStudio Pro 6.5 has advanced its Video Capture
capabilities for easier handling of huge video files and better device
control.
Capture Plug and Play
Video Capture automatically detects any Plug and Play video device
(such as a DV camcorder or a USB PC camera) connected to the
computer. The moment the device is switched on, Video Capture
prompts a message asking if you want to use the new device. There is no
need to restart the program when switching to a different capture plug-
in.
MediaStudio Pro 6.5 is also optimized to create peak performance when
working with CPUs like Intel Pentium III & IV as well as AMD
3DNow!. The latest Windows Media streaming format is supported too.
Other improvements include a new Fade to Black transition effect, direct
Ulead VideoStudio project file import, enhanced smart rendering,
resizable trim window, and many more. Check out the following sections
for more details.

Seamless DV Capture
When using the DirectShow driver, the maximum file size is 4 GB under
the FAT 32 file system in your hard drive. Yet, you can go beyond this
limitation when using Windows 2000 and Windows NT with a NTFS
formatted hard drive partition that allows a file size to exceed 4 GB.
Seamless capture gets around this 4 GB file size limitation. Once a DV
AVI file reaches 4 GB, the remaining video is automatically saved as an
another file. The capturing process remains uninterrupted no matter how
long the video footage is.
To enable Seamless Capture:
1. Make sure the DirectShow capture
plug-in is selected and a DV driver
is used.
2. Select Seamless capture in the
Advanced page of the Capture
video dialog box then click the
Options button.
3. In the Seamless Capture Options
dialog box, specify the desired
maximum video file size in the Cut
file when file size reaches box.
4. Select the Cut when scene is
detected option and select the
desired method.
a. Always Cuts the file whenever there
is a scene change.
b. At file size limitation Cuts the file
when the size reaches the value in
the Cut file when file size reaches
box.
c. At first scene after Cuts the file
when the captured video file size
exceeds the value entered in the box.
5. Click OK.

Video Editor
The Video Editor program is the mixing plate of a project. It is where
video, sound, titles, and effects are put together and saved as a file. This
version of Video Editor is a significant upgrade from its predecessor in
MediaStudio Pro 6.0. Enjoy using its new features and take advantage of
improved support for the latest hardware and software products.

Extracting Extra Audio Tracks
MediaStudio Pro 6.5 provides users with a way to extract extra audio
clips from video files to standalone audio files. Video Editor allows you
to use multiple audio clips for your projects. For a video file with
multiple audio clips, only the first audio clip can be used. MediaStudio
Pro 6.5 has added a new button, Tracks, in the Insert Video File dialog
