Sony PCG-V505P Laptop User Manual


 
SonicStage
SonicStage lets you record the best
tracks from your CDs or the Internet
and store them on your hard disk for
playback whenever you like. And
when you want your music “to go”,
just “check out” the tracks onto a
Memory Stick or create an original
compilation CD with the CD-RW
drive on your VAIO. It’s a personal
way to manage and enjoy your
music collection.
PictureGear
Turn your VAIO into a dynamic
digital photo album. PictureGear
helps you organise your digital
images and allows you to create
wallpaper, screensavers and more.
Network Smart Capture
You can capture moving and still
images from a Digital Handycam
connected via i.LINK cable, then
attach them to email. Fixed Point
Observation mode lets you take
images automatically at intervals
with a Web camera. Keep an eye on
home or pets while you’re out, or
upload images in real time to a web
site!
PictureToy
Have fun drawing and writing on
your images. You can easily
decorate and add notes to digital
photos using playful tools and
stamps. Then instantly send your
hand decorated photos as email
attachments.
DigitalPrint
DigitalPrint makes it easy and
enjoyable to print photos and labels.
Simply select the photos you like
from the thumbnail view, specify the
number of copies and sheet size,
preview the results and press
“print”. Clipart and colourful stamps
let you give them extra personality
as well as print original albums. To
create labels for various media
including CD-R, just follow the easy
to understand instructions.
MovieShaker
Create your own movies in a few
simple clicks. Sony’s easy movie
editing software creates personal
movies — complete with transitions,
special effects, background music
and text. All you do is import your
clips, pick the mood you want and
MovieShaker does the rest.
DVgate
Create your own video
masterpieces. DVgate lets you
select scenes from videos you’ve
taken with your DV (digital video)
camera, then adjust, organise and
assemble them into a movie that
you can store or transfer back to DV.
Exclusive built-in VAIO software gives you the power to create more.
If you can imagine it, you can create it with a VAIO. Sony’s exclusive software makes professional level image editing and manipulation
simple and fun for everyone. And the power of VAIO V505 allows you to handle large files quickly and easily. Animated movies, music
videos, digital photo albums, holiday greeting cards, interactive email — they’re all possible with just a few clicks.
