Gatz and Hartmann proudly presents:
the PC-Hurricane Win3.x Winhurri program Version 1.5
----------------------------------------------------
This is our new control program for the moviegrabber board
PC-Hurricane
============
This version 1.5 only runs in Hicolor modes 32K or 64K colors !
So use these Windows Hicolor drivers to use this piece of software.
Functions:
----------
1. You can digitize video movies in realtime (up to 25 frames/second) into
Extendend Memmory and play them also back in realtime with this Winhurri
program.
Now you can also do Harddisk-Video-Recording in realtime up to 384x288 screen
size (full field resolution ) !
2. You can save every single frame or the whole movie in one shot to the
harddrive.
3. Due to the DIB or BMP output you can load the DIB sequence directly into
the VideoEditor of Microsoft's Video for Windows(tm) program and generate
an compressed AVI movie. The BMP output is for the Xing Technology MPEG encoder,
so you can choose to make AVI or MPEG movies from the digitized raw data.
4. You can watch television with this card by connecting a tuner and clicking
the VIEW button. At 160x120 screen size it gives you realtime video display
without the need of an feature connector cable to your VGA card or the hassle
to be unable to use the highest Hicolor windows driver.
So you can watch TV while working in a windows resolution of e.g. 1024x768x64K
colors and still doing word-processing or picture editing in Hicolor.
Normal Overlay boards only support up to 256 colors windows drivers or only
640x480x32K colors, but not 1024x768x64K colors Noninterlaced! (like with the
new Genoa VideoBlitz card with the Weitek P9000 chipset)
Installation:
-------------
Just copy the Winhurri.exe program into a new directory and start Windows.
Inside the Program Manager go to NEW and BROWSE.
Then change into the directory you did put winhurry.exe into and click it
and click the OK button.
Then the Winhurri-Icon will be added to the active group window.
Start Winhurri by double clicking on the Icon.
Now there should appear the Winhurri workspace-window with the picture of the
PC-Hurricane moviegrabber board.
Now you can load a movie by chossing OPEN and load
the duck1.flm movie.
Now you can play the movie by clicking the play button.
Play around with all the functions and buttons. It is like using a VCR, so
there should be no problem to get used to it.
The VIEW and RECORD button will only work, if you have the PC-Hurricane board
installed.
Try to EXPORT to DIB . This will save every single frame of the loaded *.FLM
movie to single *.DIB pictures.
If you for instance give the name test.dib for the save option, then your
pictures will be saved like:
test001.dib
test002.dib
test003.dib
test004.dib and so on...
This DIB sequence then can be loaded directly into the the VidEdit(tm) Editor
of Microsoft Video for Windows(tm) and there it could be compressed to an AVI
movie.
==============================================================================
Future versions:
----------------
We are already working on integrating WAV sound digitizing in realtime together
with the video grabbing by using any installed soundcard under windows.
This will allow synchroneous digitizing of sound and video in one shot.
You can then save the DIB sequence and a WAV file and do an AVI movie with
sound in one shot !
And remember, this is not a compressed video format, so you still can generate
FLI, FLC, AVI, MPEG or GL movies out of the PC-Hurricane output.
