Capturing TV footage

VideoStudio allows you to capture TV footage with a built-in TV
tuner. Capture a segment of your favorite television show on regular
TV or cable then save it in your hard drive in AVI, MPEG, or
Windows Media Format.
To capture TV footage:
1. Check if your computer has an
analog video capture card with a
TV input jack. This jack usually
uses a TV coaxial cable to input
TV signals from either an antenna
or a dedicated cable from your
CATV supplier.
2. Run VideoStudio and go to the
Capture Step.
3. Select the appropriate Video
Source from the Source drop-
down list on the Capture Settings
