BTV is an application that allows you to easily view video from any video

digitising source, either full screen or in a window. It was originally

written for the IXTV (TurboTV) card however it has been successfully

tested with a number of video sources including various video input

cards, TV cards, built-in video hardware, and even USB video sources!



Features:



- Full-screen video with no menu bar

- Video in a window which can be dragged around the screen or resized

- Automatic monitor resolution switching to the resolution of your choice

(usually 640x480 or 800x600) and back to the original resolution on quit

- Multiple monitor support - play full screen video on one monitor while

you work on another

- Can capture a PICT file, either straight to the desktop with an

automatic file name or through the normal save dialog box

- Can record a movie to disk using custom video and sound settings

- Can black out other monitors on a multi-monitor system

- Can be set to disable background processes so no interference by

screensaver or powersaver

- Can adjust size of picture with arrow keys

- Can hide the mouse (this can be done automatically on startup)

- Can spin down hard disks for less noise (this can be done automatically

on startup)

- Saves all video and sound settings



System requirements:



Any PowerMac with video digitising hardware.

BTV uses 1400k of RAM, however if you never need to create PICT files you

can reduce this to about 400k.
