Using Multimedia 9-5
Video
Depending on the model, the NEC Versa VXi features a TFT panel with SVGA or
XGA resolution. This enables color display for sharp effective visuals right on the
system or projected onto an external CRT monitor.
Use your NEC Versa VXi to run full motion, full-screen MPEG video. In Windows 98,
the Active Movie Control gives you MPEG capabilities. In Windows NT, you must
install Internet Explorer to use the Active Movie Control function.
Access the Active Movie Control as follows:
1.
Go to Start, Programs, Accessories, Entertainment, and select Active Movie
Control.
An Open dialog box displays.
2.
Locate your CD-ROM drive and double click on the appropriate drive to display its
contents.
3.
Open your file and press the Play button. (To play full screen MPEG video, you
may need to press the Window maximize button to bring your video to full size.)
Using Digital Video Files
With commercial video capture hardware and application software, you can plug any
video device, including VCRs, televisions, camcorders, and laser disc players into your
NEC Versa VXi and record motion graphics to your hard drive.
Use a video frame grabber and store a stream of grabbed stills on your hard disk.
Using Animation Files
You can create a dynamic presentation using an animation application. Animation can
illustrate a concept, drive home an important point, or command attention. Graphics
animation can add punch to a presentation with an animated illustration, a flashing
arrow, or a flying logo.
