Figure 9: Selecting a video codec using the Epiphan video

capture application

After you install the video codec on the video capture

workstation you configure the Epiphan video capture application

or your custom video capture application to send captured

images to the video codec. From the Epiphan video capture

application you can also configure settings for the video codec

that you select. See

Chapter 15. “Recording videos” on page 97

.

The video codec and codec settings to choose depend on your

requirements. You may need to try several different codecs and

change configuration settings to see which codec best fits your
requirements. Epiphan recommends the ffvfw video codec for

most Windows video capture applications. See

“Installing the

ffvfw video codec pack” on page 100
