This Chapter discusses the Videogram Creator software. With the Videogram Creator software you can begin capturing,
creating, and sending Videograms. This Chapter will explain the different aspects and features of this software, and will
show you how to adjust settings to create the best Videograms with your system.
Vital settings that control whether or not you see video are described in this section, so it’s worth reading. These settings
are labeled with the Vital Setting tag.
Opening the Videogram Creator application
To access this application click on the “Start” button and then “Programs,” “Philips PCA635VC” and finally click on the
Videogram Creator” icon (as shown below).
Provided the Philips PCA635VC unit and the Videogram Creator software were properly setup, as described in Chapters
2 & 3, this will bring up the Videogram Creator application. See page 44 for a diagram of the Videogram Creator inter-
face.
If the system stops responding AND does not load the software then you should check to make sure that your system
meets the Minimum System Requirements and double-check the connections from the system to the Philips PCA635VC
unit.
If the following message appears, then a valid sound card is NOT installed.
The Philips PCA635VC captures sound by using an existing sound card in the system. If you do not have a sound card,
then simply click “OK” and ignore this message. Ignoring this message does not affect video capture, however it will disa-
ble sound capability in the Philips PCA635VC application.
Test your sound card with Microsoft “Sound Recorder” which comes with Windows 95. Access this application under
“Start”, then “Programs”, followed by “Accessories”, “Multimedia”, then click on the “Sound Recorder” icon. If your sound
card is installed correctly this test will be successful, otherwise, contact the sound card manufacturer for information on
how to enable it under Windows 95.
Philips PCA635VC may not support all sound cards. Usually, if your board works with Microsoft “Sound Recorder” then
it will also work with the Philips PCA635VC system and Videogram Creator application.
