packaged bundle with a new Pyramix 7 system, VCube Essentials is your entry into the world of VCube. Essentials
enables you to use QuickTime® or Windows® Direct Show compatible video files in a single player. Optional sup-
port for other formats can be purchased from your Merging Technologies Sales partner.
