- Movie CD Tips & Techniques
- ==========================
-
- Tip #1 - How Do I Get There From Here?
- --------------------------------------
- If watching the video and you want to take a break, make note of the time
- in the counter of the Remote Control. Click the "Go To" button, type in
- the time, then click "Ok!". Exit the program. Next time the Movie CD
- program is started, click on the "Go To" button, then Ok!". You will be
- in exactly the same spot when you left! Instant access, no rewinding or
- fast-forwarding.
-
-
- Tip #2 - Screen Saver
- ---------------------
- Click on the "Options" button on the Remote Control. Checkmark the
- "Mute Audio During Slow Motion" and "Replay (Loop) Video" and "OK!" to
- close the dialog box. Select a 4x "Windowed Enlargement Style" with the
- "Playback Style" button, then click "Min/Max". Single-click with the
- right mouse button to recall the Remote Control, then click on "Slo-Mo".
- Presto! Instant screen saver.
-
-
- Tip #3 - Favorite Position
- --------------------------
- Move the Video Window and the Remote Control to your favorite position
- on the Windows desktop. Click the "Exit" button on the Remote Control.
- Go to the Motion Pixels Program Group and double-click on the "The Motion
- Pixels Movie Player" icon. The Video Window and the Remote will reappear
- right where you left them! All settings are memorized when you exit the
- program.
-
-
- Tip #4 - Play It Again, Sam!
- ----------------------------
- In Windows '95, make sure the "Auto Insert Notification" is enabled for
- the local CD-ROM drive. Each time you insert the disc, the Movie CD will
- play automatically.
-
-
- Tip #5 - More Movies?
- ---------------------
- If you have several different Movie CD's, the Motion Pixels Movie Player
- will show a list of all the available titles. Insert the desired Movie CD,
- and click on the appropriate title.
-
-
- Tip #6 - All These Options!
- ----------------------------------
- If you are having problems playing the video fullscreen, use the "Windowed
- Enlargement Style" options instead of the "Fullscreen Enlargement Style"
- options. Select a 4x "Windowed Enlargement Style" or "Hardware Scaling" to
- resize the video in a window, then click "Min/Max" on the Remote Control.
- This option uses the durrently installed Windows video driver.
-
- Tip #7 - Use The Keyboard
- -------------------------
- Most playback fucntions for video in a window have associated "Hotkeys".
- For example, press CTRL+F to play the video fullscreen or CTRL+S to play
- in slow-motion. See the video window control menu for the Hotkeys.
-
-
- Tip #8 - I'm Out Of Control
- ---------------------------
- Some Remote Control playback functions (fast-forward, rewind, slow-motion,
- frame advance, etc.) only work with the video in a window. These functions
- are not available on the Fullscreen Enlargement Styles.
