Main features:
- This document provides important information about the Apple Video Player software. You may want to print this document and keep it with your manuals. Most of this information is not in the documentation. If you have questions that are not answered in this document, refer to the manuals that came with your computer.
- Video viewing and video capture is supported in window sizes of up to 640 x 480 pixels. For the highest-quality video and TV viewing, use the standard video window sizes (Smallest, Normal, or Largest) in Apple Video Players Windows menu. If you choose to customize the window size (by choosing Other in the Windows menu), the images resolution may decrease.
- In addition, video resolution is optimized when you view the Apple Video Player video window on the monitor connected to the monitor port on your Macintosh. You can drag the video window to a secondary monitor (connected to an expansion card), but the image resolution will decrease.The Apple Video Player application program allows you to use a keyboard shortcut, called a "hot key," to open and quit the program, and to switch between Apple Video Player and any other open programs. However, due to a minor incompatibility problem with MacroMedia Director, the Apple Video Player hot key doesnt work when MacroMedia Director is open.
- If you are installing Apple Video Player for the first time, no hot key is defined. You can set one using the Hot Key item in the Setup Menu. If you are replacing a previous version of Apple Video Player, the hot key setting is retained in the Apple Video Player Preferences file.f you have a TV tuner card, the Apple Video Player application program can display closed captions for TV channels that provide them. However, in order for closed captions to be visible, the video window size must be set to Normal Size or greater. Also, for best results, networking or printing should not be active when close captioning is selected.Likewise, for best results, networking or printing should not be active when you are recording video from either television or an alternate video source. Virtual memory should also be turned off when capturing video for best results.
- Movies are captured at the current volume setting. Set the volume to the desired level before recording a movie. Movies recorded when the sound is muted will not have any sound.

iMovie ’08 makes viewing and working with video as intuitive as enjoying your photos. A built-in library automatically organizes your video, so all the clips you’ve captured and movies you’ve created are just a click away.

With its revolutionary interface, iMovie makes it quick and easy to browse your library and create new movies. And iMovie is built for sharing. In just a few steps, you will be able to add movies to your website, publish them on YouTube, and create versions for iPod, iPhone, and Apple TV.

Beginning with the Power Mac G4 AGP (“Sawtooth”) machines, Apple introduced version 2.0 of the Apple DVD Player software. This version (and subsequent releases) of the Apple DVD Player do not require DVD decoding and playback hardware in order to play DVD video disks.

However, at the same time, Apple introduced a limitation into the DVD player: if you have MacsBug (Apple’s machine-level debugger) installed, the Apple DVD Player will display an error message, and then exit.

The DVD Player helper performs exactly one function: it allows to use the Apple DVD Player software to watch DVD videos on a Mac on which MacsBug is installed.

All you have to do is drag the "DVD Player Helper" extension file onto your active System Folder and restart the machine.

PlayVideoTS opens the VIDEO_TS folder of ripped DVDs into the Mac OS X DVD Player application.

PlayVideoTS works in either of two ways:

• drop a folder containing a VIDEO_TS folder onto PlayVideoTS and it will be opened and start playing in the Apple DVD Player
• append a .dvdvideo to the directory name, thus transforming the folder into a bundle recognized by PlayVideoTS. From then on you can just double click on it in the Finder to start up the ripped DVD in the Apple DVD Player.

Apple Search allows you to search the Apple Discussions, Downloads, Manuals and Support Site from dashboard.
