Table C. Export Data Types
AVI Saves video sequence as a standard Windows video format.
ASF Saves video sequence as a standard Windows media file.
Native
Saves video sequence using DX8000’s proprietary compression
format. Native format provides increased compression and
smaller file sizes.

the first frame of the video sequence is saved.
JPEG

video sequence is saved.
TIF

Format. Only the first frame of the video sequence is saved.
Saved images contain a digital watermark to secure against
unauthorized alteration.
NOTES:
• When exporting video in the native format, the DX8000 embeds a digital watermark in the video stream for the purpose of
authentication. Watermarking ensures that an image has not been edited or damaged after it has been recorded. The watermark is an
encrypted, digital signature embedded in the video stream during the compression stage, protecting the video from the moment of
creation. The DX8000 Viewer software is capable of reading a DX8000 watermark and verifying the originality of the video.
• Video exported in AVI or ASF format can be viewed using standard viewer software such as Windows Media Player. When exporting
video in the native format to a CD or DVD device, the DX8000 will automatically include the DX8000 Viewer application along with
the video. This viewer is designed to play a variety of still image, video, and audio media formats, including the native DX8000 format.
The DX8000 Viewer application will automatically run each time a CD or DVD created by the DX8000’s export feature is inserted into
a Windows-based PC. To ensure that the viewer software runs automatically after the disk has been inserted, verify that the autorun
feature of your PC’s optical drive has not been disabled.
