Mini remote
If you don’t want to use the full-sized PC-VCR
Remote, you can use the “mini remote”. The mini
remote is a toolbar added to the PC-VCR Remote
video window. The mini remote replaces the “full remote”. To use the mini remote, right-click the
PC-VCR Remote, then click
Use Mini Remote
on the resulting pop-up menu.
Pause your mouse pointer over each mini remote button to see a pop-up tooltip identifying it. There
are different buttons on the mini remote depending on the type of input selected.
To return to using the full remote again, right-click the PC-VCR Remote video window, then click
Use Full Remote
on the resulting pop-up menu.

of what else you can do with PC-VCR Remote:

video window to its original size.
TV program timer ( )
You can program the PC-VCR Remote like you would a
VCR. You can schedule weekly, daily or one-time-only TV program events which do one of
three things:
ƒ
Make the PC-VCR Remote video window appear.
ƒ
Save Closed Captioning text to a file (North America only).
ƒ
Record video and audio input to a file.
Closed Captioning ( )
Save Closed Captioning text to a file. If the
current PC-VCR Remote video input signal supports the Closed Captioning service
used in North America, click the
Closed Captioning
button to show or hide text
information encoded in the video signal. (This feature doesn’t work with the Teletext service
used in Europe.)
Mini remote toolbar (FILE input)
* If your display area setting is too large,
TV
and
LINE
input and playback from Matrox MJPEG-encoded AVI video files may
appear centered on a black screen when viewed “full-screen”. Playback from other types of AVI files may appear blocky when
viewed full-screen because of the way the video is encoded.
