Capture Your Video

Capture is the process of importing video from a video source such as a camcorder to a file on your PC’s hard drive. Clips from this "capture file" can then be used in Studio as ingredients of your edited movies. You can open capture files into the Album in Studio’s Edit mode. Capture is the first step in using your video footage. Studio is able to capture from both digital (DV, Digital8, HDV) and analog video sources. Another method of obtaining video material, although it isn’t capture in the strict sense, and doesn’t require using Studio’s Capture mode, is to import files from a DVD disc or image. This operation is carried out using the File » Import DVD Titles menu command.
