Chapter 11, Using Matrox Vetura Capture and Vetura Playback
not stop capturing if one or more frames are dropped, and a dropped
frames message will not be displayed.
$ Configure Codec Click to select and configure the codec that you want
to use for your capture. The options that appear are specific to the selected
codec. For more information, see your QuickTime documentation.
Remarks
• You can open the Compression Settings window by pressing
COMMAND+D.
• If you don’t have a full-raster HD codec installed on your system,
Matrox provides the Matrox MPEG-2 I-frame codec that you can use to
capture SD/HD material. For information on using the Matrox
MPEG-2 I-frame codec and its options, see “Using the Matrox
MPEG-2 I-frame codec” on page 125. To play back the captured video
file on another system, the same codec that was used to capture the
video must be installed on that system.
• The Matrox MAX H.264 codec is not supported for capture with
Ve tu r a C ap t u re .
3 Under File Settings, set the following options:
$ Path Specify the destination where all captured videos will be saved.
$ Filename Specify the filename for your captured video.
$ File suffix Select the type of file suffix that is added at the end of the
specified filename when saved.
• None No suffix is added. The file is saved with the specified
filename only.
• Incremental numbering Adds the number specified as the Start at
number, at the end of the filename. This number increments by one
after every capture. For example, if
Start at is set to 8 and the filename
is Capture, this option saves the file as Capture+008. The next capture
file is saved as Capture+009, and so on.
• Date and time Adds the current date and time at the end of the
filename, in the form YYYY-MM-DD HH.MM.SS. For example, if the
capture is taken on January 4, 2010 at 11:08:01, and the filename is
Capture, the file is saved as Capture 2010-01-04 11.08.01.
