Using SMART Video Player

SMART Video Player software is a convenient tool for viewing and annotating video and
graphics, allowing you to write over top of the video, pause or freeze frames and save or
clear annotations. When you save an annotation, a screen capture is automatically saved to
a Notebook file. If you enable the Pause when Tool(s) Lifted setting, the video will
automatically pause whenever you pick up a stylus from the SMART Pen Tray.
SMART Video Player supports all basic video formats. For Windows operating systems, any
video that can be viewed in Windows Media Player can be viewed in SMART Video Player. It
also supports video hardware devices that comply with the DirectX application programming
interface and run on a Microsoft Windows operating system capable of using Windows Driver
Mode (WDM). However, the Video Player does not support internal DVD drives or live video
streamed over the Internet.
NOTE: Windows 95, 98 and Windows NT 4.0 operating systems are not capable of using
Windows Driver Mode. If you have the Windows 95, 98 or Windows NT 4.0 operating
system, you can't use SMART Video Player to view the output from video hardware.

Multiple SMART Board Interactive Whiteboards

When using multiple boards, always run SMART Video Player on the primary board. There
are two ways to set up multiple boards: with a separate video card for each board or with a
single video card that splits the video signal. If you're using a separate video card for each
board, SMART Video Player will not run on the secondary board. If you're using a single
video card that splits the video signal, the software will run on the secondary board. However,
it will consume more system resources than running SMART Video Player on the primary
board.
