Recording
MAGIX Video Pro X2 provides the following recording options:
DV cameras: Mini DV camcorders or DV video recorders
HDV cameras: HDV1 and HDV2 camcorders

Single frame: Single and series images from webcams, video recorders, video cameras,
or TV cards

Screen: PC monitor
Analog capture requires capture cards compatible with DirectShow. DV capture can be
performed through an OHCI-compatible IEEE 1394 host adapter (FireWire or iLink). A TV
card can be used to record programs from TV or from your video recorder.
There is no limit to the length of your recordings. Now you may record video as long as
there is available space on your hard drive. Using real-time compression during capture
creates smaller file sizes and more available space.
