Media- and device-specific dialog
When you select a device from the drop-down list, the left side of the Media
Import window shows a dialog specific to that device type. (The preceding
illustration shows a dialog to import photos from a CD.)
Import Bin
The Import Bin (not shown) is on the right side of the Media Import
window. It contains files imported in this session (that is, since you started
the component).
Devices appearing when no external device is
connected
The Device drop-down list always contains entries for the following
devices, even if no external media device is connected.
■
video capture card: If a video capture card is installed on your
computer, the video capture card appears in the Device list on the
Video Home page. Media Import cannot tell whether an analog video
device (such as a VCR or TV tuner) is connected to the video capture
card.
■
TWAIN devices: If a TWAIN device is installed on your computer,
the Device list includes the device, even if the device is not connected.
