Using SMART Video Player SMART Video Player software is a convenient tool for viewing and annotating video and graphics, allowing you to write over top of the video, pause or freeze frames and save or clear annotations. When you save an annotation, a screen capture is automatically saved to a Notebook file. If you enable the Pause when Tool(s) Lifted setting, the video will automatically pause whenever you pick up a stylus from the SMART Pen Tray. SMART Video Player supports all basic video formats. For Windows operating systems, any video that can be viewed in Windows Media Player can be viewed in SMART Video Player. It also supports video hardware devices that comply with the DirectX application programming interface and run on a Microsoft Windows operating system capable of using Windows Driver Mode (WDM). However, the Video Player does not support internal DVD drives or live video streamed over the Internet. NOTE: Windows 95, 98 and Windows NT 4.0 operating systems are not capable of using Windows Driver Mode. If you have the Windows 95, 98 or Windows NT 4.0 operating system, you can’t use SMART Video Player to view the output from video hardware. System Requirements Windows Operating Systems • Intel®Pentium III® brand 800-MHz or higher processor (recommended) • 128 MB RAM (recommended) • 200 MB of free hard-disk space (recommended) • DirectX 8.0a or higher application-programming interface support • Windows Media Player • Windows 95, 98, 2000, ME or XP operating system. (SMART Video Player does not currently support the Windows NT 4.0 operating system.) Multiple SMART Board Interactive Whiteboards When using multiple boards, always run SMART Video Player on the primary board. There are two ways to set up multiple boards: with a separate video card for each board or with a single video card that splits the video signal. If you're using a separate video card for each board, SMART Video Player will not run on the secondary board. If you're using a single video card that splits the video signal, the software will run on the secondary board. However, it will consume more system resources than running SMART Video Player on the primary board. Accessing and Exiting SMART Video Player To open SMART Video Player: Press the SMART Board icon in the system tray and select Video Player. The SMART Video Player window will open. To exit SMART Video Player: Select Exit from the File menu. or Win SMART Board User’s Guide 41
