Module 18 Real-time MPEG 1/2/4 recording
MPEG is a standard for recording and digitizing video data (with/without audio). The advantages of
MPEG video clips are that they offer good compression compared to other video formats, thus ensuring
that they can be kept relatively small.
Digital video clips are generated with the WinCan MPEG option and incorporated in WinCan projects. The
recording is made in real time. The powerful hardware supplied ensures that you can continue to work
with the computer because the sophisticated compression is carried out entirely as a background opera-
tion. Here the video data is thus written to the hard disk.
WinCan creates what is termed an index file as the observations are being recorded. This links each posi-
tion where damage is present to a certain point in the film with complete accuracy. Therefore, it just
needs the click of the mouse for the person reviewing the data to go to a point in the file - with no time-
consuming winding and waiting.
WinCan v8 supports MPEG-1/2/4 formats.
Result
Video clips incorporated in WinCan, which can be viewed directly in WinCan or using the Windows Me-
diaPlayer. Afterwards a file is created for direct positioning of the video clip.
Requirements
