Capturing a QuickTime movie with "generic" QuickTime compatible movie
recording applications requires a software module called a Video
Digitizer (VDIG).  Currently Truevision is beta testing a VDIG to work
with Apple's MovieRecorder and Adobe's Premiere 2.0, as well as DiVA's
VideoShop. QT assumes that all movie recording is done on a
video-in-a-window card and keeping these applications from putting their
dialogs on the capture screen has been very difficult.

VideoSpigot ships with a specific application to record images and
convert them to a QuickTime compatible format. Recently SuperMac has
started including their own VDIG to support other QT-compatible recording
applications.

Truevision will be shipping a copy of the final VDIG to all registered
customers later in October (or early November, depending). You can e-mail
a postal address to me to be included in that mailing. A reminder - the
software that we will be shipping will only be useful to customers with
either a Truevision NuVista+ or a Truevision NuVista Classic.
