2 Click one of the buttons under Movie Compression.
None means that no compression takes place. Normal, the
preset choice, uses anywhere from 12% to 50% of the disk
space that None uses; the less movement in each frame of
the movie, the greater the savings. Most uses slightly less
disk space than does Normal.
To save the most space you can, choose the smallest size
video window and the most compression.
Note: Compression affects picture quality: the more
compression you use, the grainier the picture.
Recording
You can capture video sequences (moving images) as
QuickTime movies, which can be opened in any application
that supports QuickTime, such as SimpleText.
To capture video images, follow these steps:
1 Make sure networking or printing is not active and virtual
memory is turned off.
For best results recording video, you should quit networking
or printing applications and turn off virtual memory. To
check whether virtual memory is on or not, open the
Memory control panel. If the On button for virtual memory
is selected, click the Off button to turn virtual memory off.
