Enhanced Video Card in 755CD provides:
- Acceleration of 'Video for Windows' motion
video with scaling and interpolation of image.
Video may be scaled up to full screen without
frame rate degredation.
- Composite in and S-Video in for video
capture (capture and digitize video from a TV
or VCR), still image capture (capture and
digitize still photo images), and overlay (view
video on LCD like with a TV, VCR, or
camcorder without capturing it to disk). So
can hook up a TV or VCR and run it on the
ThinkPad screen.
- Composite out and S-Video out to TV
meaning use a TV as if an external display
(connect to video out port; NTSC or PAL);
or record on a VCR the contents of the
755CD screen.
- Mini game port for MIDI or joystick (includes
MIDI/joystick cable)
- Includes a video in and video out port
