With XCLAIM TV connected to XCLAIM VR’s S-video
input, you can still use XCLAIM VR’s composite video
input for connecting external video equipment to
XCLAIM VR. However, since the composite video input
provides a video-only connection, you will need to
disconnect XCLAIM TV’s audio cable from the Sound
Input port on your computer in order to make the audio
connection from your external video equipment.
If your video source provides composite video and
S-video,
S-video will produce better results
. However,
you must first remove the S-video cable that connects
XCLAIM TV to the card, and then connect your S-video
equipment to XCLAIM VR in the usual manner.
Selecting the Sound Input
Before installing and running the software, select the correct
sound input in the “Monitors & Sound” control panel (or
equivalent). The Sound Input setting should match the
audio input connection that you are using. If you are using
the Sound Input port ( ) on your Power Mac, the Sound
Input setting is typically “External Microphone”; if you are
using RCA audio connections (available on some Power
Mac systems), the Sound Input setting is typically “External
Audio Input”. (You will not be able to change this control
panel setting while Xclaim Video Player is running.)
Installing the Software
The XCLAIM TV installation disk installs all of the
components necessary to operate both XCLAIM VR and
XCLAIM TV (including Xclaim Video Player 1.5 or later).
Insert the XCLAIM TV installation disk into your drive.
Double-click on the XCLAIM TV
Installer icon.
