Turn Your Pocket PC into A Video Maker (sort of)

Posted by John Walkosak in "SOFTWARE" @ 09:00 AM


All This and Stills Too!
Not only can you extract video into the Pocket PC, but you can use the IA Capture software to grab stills from the video information – just watch the video playing in the window, and hit the capture button at the desired point, just like using the IA Capture program with regular camera hardware. The results aren’t amazing, but they are pretty good considering that they are frame grabs.

You can use the IA Capture software to grab stills from the video source in a variety of resolutions and file types. You can also grab some video using IA Capture, but it is a proprietary format that you will need IA Capture to view.

IA Capture can also be used to capture video, but it saves them into the proprietary .iav format, which you will need to view from within the IA Capture software.

Conclusions
The FlyGrabber may be a niche product, but it does exactly what it says it will and it does it quickly and easily.
