What does DigiUtils Setup install?

Chapter 4, Installing the DigiSuite Software
The DigiUtils Setup program that's provided on your DigiSuite
CD-ROM installs the drivers needed to use DigiSuite LE with Video for
Windows and DirectShow programs, and the DigiSuite Configuration
program that lets you configure DigiSuite LE to meet specific
requirements.
If you have DigiDesktop or any other Matrox display card (such as
Millennium, G400, etc.), the Matrox DigiView program will also be
installed. This program lets you display live video in a window on your
computer's monitor.
Note The Microsoft DirectShow runtime files are always installed by
DigiUtils Setup. If you have a more recent version of the runtime files on
your system, however, those files will not be overwritten.
You can also choose to install any or all of the following components:
q
DigiTools A suite of tools you can use to capture and play back
high-quality video and audio clips, as well as convert files between
different formats and record clips onto tape.
q

animations in 3D Studio MAX.

print-to-tape of clips using time code. (This driver will be installed
automatically if you install the DigiSuite Effects plug-in for Adobe
Premiere RT.)
