Configuring your software
InterView can capture near real time 320x240 NTSC frames
or full 640x240 non-interlaced snapshots.
Using InterView’s VideoShop digitizing function, you can
capture your own clips live, from a VCR or from any standard
video source with video out via RCA composite connectors or
S-Video connectors. When you have finished creating a
movie, you can save it as a QuickTime movie to be distribut-
ed via the Web, email, a CD, or any form of electronic dupli-
cation you prefer.
1. Verify that you have:
InterView with software fully installed
A VCR, digital camera or camcorder connected to
the InterView device with audio connected to the
Mac, or an audio digitizing card
2. Configure your system software for “InterView-ing”
Set the Mac for “Sound In” by opening the “Monitors
& Sounds” control panel to the “Sound” settings,
then set the “Sound Monitoring Source” to “Sound
In,” “AV Connector” or “External Mic” depending
upon your set up.
