Compaq MyMovieSTUDIO

Getting Started

277980-002xx.p65 4/8/02, 3:29 PM1

Congratulations and welcome

to the Compaq MyMovieSTUDIO

leading edge digital video editing

and DVD authoring desktop

computer. You have purchased a

premier desktop solution for

quickly recording, authoring, and

editing DVDs without needing

any specialized video editing

or computing skills. Compaq

MyMovieSTUDIO is bundled with

Sonic MyDVD Video Suite.

You can:

> Record directly to a DVD or VCD* from

any video source, such as a VCR**,

television tuner**, or digital camcorder.

> Use wizards to successfully guide you

through recording, editing, assisting

with choices and preventing

frustrating errors.

> Re-edit from a previously-recorded

DVD or VCD with MyDVD software.

> Make CD-R and CD-RW recordings.

* VCD = Video CD is a digital videodisc format that is based

on MPEG-1 video and audio compression. Video quality is

similar to VHS videotape.

** Requires an ALL-IN-WONDER Radeon card or equivalent,

available on selected models only.

Note: Purchased or rented DVD movies are encrypted to

prevent illegal copying.

Take a moment to familiarize yourself

with the components that enable you

to create professional looking DVDs

or VCDs. With your Compaq

MyMovieSTUDIO bundled solution,

you should have:

>A DVD Rewriteable drive or a CD

Rewriteable drive (installed in

your computer, only if you config-

ure with a rewriteable drive.)

>Digital Video Center (3 IEEE-1394

ports with 2 Front USB ports)

>MyDVD Video Suite software

(packaged with this booklet)

The DVD Rewriteable drive allows

you to record movies onto a blank

DVD or CD, create music and video

CDs on a CD-R disc, and store data on

a CD or DVD Rewriteable disc. You

can use the data recording software

provided to create music CDs and

data storage CDs or DVDs.

You can use the MyDVD Video Suite

software to create home DVDs and

the ShowBiz software bundled with

it to perform advanced edits on your

home DVD.

device to the IEEE-1394 port on the front of

your Compaq computer. Insert a DVD or CD

disc into the DVD or CD Rewriteable drive,

and you are ready to make DVDs or CDs.

What can you do with MyMovieSTUDIO?

The Compaq MyMovieSTUDIO makes it easy and fun to put video and

audio onto recordable DVDs and CDs. MyMovieSTUDIO PC is bundled

with Sonic MyDVD Video Suite package software. You can capture

video from your camcorder or VHS* and share it with friends and

family via DVD**, VCD**, and even email. Video Suite combines the

sheer simplicity and power of Sonic MyDVD with the professional-

level editing features of the ArcSoft ShowBiz video editor to create a

fully-integrated video production center. Sharing your video couldn’t

be easier or more flexible. Using the MyMovieSTUDIO bundled

solution, you can record directly to a DVD or CD, create or author a

new project, or edit an existing DVD project previously recorded on a

DVD or CD disc.

What about advanced editing?

If you are a video enthusiast who wants to perform advanced editing

on your movies, MyDVD Video Suite offers ShowBiz that has some

creative options for your movie creation. Advanced users can enhance

your movie with titles, transitions, music, and other special effects with

real-time rendering. When you are done with editing, you can send

your video clips or edits to MyDVD software for DVD authoring and

recording it onto a DVD or CD disc. MyDVD Video Suite offers a smart

integration between applications for a more flexible, easy-to-use DVD

and VCD creation tool. No more clumsy installation of separate

applications from different sources for capture, edit and record.

What do you need to make a recording?

To make a recording, you need a video source, such as a digital

camcorder, TV*, or VHS* and DVD or CD media.

What can you do if you don’t have a CD or DVD

Rewriteable drive?

You can still create movie files, VCD or DVD projects on your hard drive.

You can share with your friends and family via email or post it on the web.
