View this .PDF file for instructions on enabling the audio mixer in Vista. This is needed for creating video lessons and using the audio trigger in MotionView. enableaudiomixervista.pdf

1. Open your .mov file in Quicktime PRO and then click File/Export.

2. Select the “Movie to AVI” format, and choose a filename for your new .avi file.

3. Under Options/Video Settings, select the Compression type “DV/DVCPRO – NTSC”. You can also adjust the quality of the new video here. These settings will all be remembered, so you don’t have to keep setting them for each video you convert after this.

4. Click “OK” back through all the screens until you can “Save” the video. That’s it! Once the export is complete your .AVI file will have a native resolution of 720×480.

We are pleased to announce that as of today, Feb 6, 2008, both MotionView and MotionClip no longer require administrator priveleges to run under Vista!

You will still need administrator priveleges to install and activate the software, but it is not needed to run it. Also announced today (on both XP and Vista) is support for running the software under multiple user accounts (on the same computer).

Customers are invited to update their software by free download at http://www.allsportsystems.com.

Today we uploaded version 6.1.5 of MotionClip game film video editing software to our site. Here is a summary of the enhancments in this version:

1) Unused parameters are now hidden from the main screen and table so you can have larger space for the text in those parameters which you do use.

2) The comments now appear in lead in screens.

3) The “skip forward” button was fixed to advance approximately 5 seconds (it was only moving 1 second).

4) A couple of keyboard shortcuts were added for the Play and jump buttons (Ctrl-P = play/pause, Ctrl-B = jump back, Ctrl-N = jump forward).

5) We added a “seconds” display in the bottom right corner, in addition to the hours:minutes:seconds time display that was already there. This should help you relate to the currently tagged video position a little easier.

To add or remove parameters, use the menu “Settings/Edit Parameters. This will display a screen similar to the following:

To DELETE an existing parameter, select it in the middle pane, and press the Delete button.
To ADD a new parameter, enter it in the small text area at the bottom, and press either ADD or INSERT.

To get the latest version of our video analysis software simply visit our website (www.allsportsystems.com) and download the software from the “Software Downloads” page. You can install directly over the version you have… there is no need to uninstall first. This will automatically update your systems with the latest release.

To determine which version of our video analysis software you have look under the menu “Help/About…”. You can compare your version with the latest released version as displayed on our downloads page.

To create a video lesson you first open a video file (or capture some new video from your camera).

Next, while on the ‘Analyze’ screen, you use the menu “Digital VCR/Create a Video Lesson”. This will display a small preview window in the lower left corner of MotionView, showing the content that will be placed into your new lesson. Initially the preview window will include a dark blue frame, indicating that the lesson recorder is Paused.

When you are ready to add content to the new video lesson, press the REC button on the preview image. This starts the recording process, and the software begins capturing your screen activity (video stepping or playing, new drawings, etc), as well as your speech (through any standard PC microphone). When adding new content, the frame around the preview window will turn RED.

Here’s a screenshot: 

 If you want to pause the lesson recorder (perhaps to change the video you are working with, or to set up some new drawings), you simply press the PAU button (which stands for pause).

You can continue this process (REC/PAU) as long as you like. Just keep in mind that new content is only added to the video lesson you are creating when the preview window has a RED frame around it.

Once you are done, press the END button. You will then be given a chance to review the video lesson you created, and to either save it or discard it. If you save it, it will automatically be compressed into a WMV video file and placed inside your computer’s CDROM burning folder to await burning to a CD.

Yes you can play quicktime movies in our MotionView video analysis software! All you need is the latest quicktime video player software and our 60FPS upgrade, available on the “Software Downloads” section of our website: http://www.allsportsystems.com.

Our software is designed to work with computer video files such as .AVI, .WMV, etc. DVDs do not store files in these computer formats. However you can still work with your DVD videos by either converting them into standard computer video files or by capturing them through our USB Video Grabber. Of all the video conversion products we have seen, the AVS Video Tools software package appears to be the most powerful and affordable.
