to the bitmap file with the specified video format size.

TG8000.
Since the AVG7 module outputs a signal using the 2-time over
sampling technique, one pixel of a bitmap image corresponds
to two samples of the signal. T herefore, when creating a frame
picture file for the AVG7 module, the application uses each pixel
of a bitmap image twice.
Build Pic Bmp
Converts the selected frame picture file (.pic) to the bitmap
file and displays its image in the PicBMP View window. Note
that this command cannot reproduce the original bitmap file
completely because the data of the frame picture file is changed
when it is converted from the bitmap file. This command is useful
when you want to check any frame picture images on the PC.
