A.3 Supported File Formats
The DVS software supports over 100 graphic and image file formats.
Most are made available by a special library. For a list of all these file
formats see http://perso.orange.fr/pierre.g/xnview/
enformats.html.
The tables in the following list the file formats that are supported by the
DVS software directly. They are listed according to their file types: First
the video file formats are detailed, followed by a table of the audio file
formats.
Some of the file formats may not be real-time capable and/or
cannot be captured.
To be usable in the DVS software some file formats, such as the
*.mov file format, may require the installation of third-party
programs.
