1-4 Basic Terms Basic terms used in ImageMixer IEEE1394 Also called 'I Triple E 1394,' this interface is best known for facilitating very fast data transfer speeds (up to 400Mbps). It is used primarily as an output interface (DV connector) for digital video cameras or hard disk drives. Other names for this interface include i.LINK (in Windows), and FireWire (in Macintosh). MPEG MPEG stands for Moving Picture Experts Group. MPEG is an international data compression format for digital movies and Hi-Fi audio. MPEG-1 is the approved format for Video CDs, and its brilliant audio/video quality is comparable to that of VHS videotape. MPEG movies are stored as smaller files than DV (digital video) movies of the same length, making it the standard movie format for Internetrelated activities. The MPEG-2 format also creates high quality images, but is used primarily for DVDs and Digital Satellite Broadcasting. Exif Based originally on JPEG and TIFF file types, this format is used for still pictures taken with digital cameras. Exif files contain detailed information (such as the date/time the photo was taken, image size, shutter speed, etc.) on individual pictures. MAPI This is an acronym for "Messaging Application Programming Interface." It is the standard API (application programming interface) specification recommended by Microsoft for e-mail related activities. Usually, without MAPI, application software is unable to share data with other applications. (This would mean, for example, that ImageMixer would only be able to exchange data within itself.) In ImageMixer, MAPI acts as a sort of bridge between the ImageMixer application and your e-mail software. When MAPI compatible e-mail software is used, layouts created in ImageMixer can be sent via e-mail directly from the ImageMixer user interface. MAPI compatible e-mail software includes Microsoft Outlook Express, Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft Outlook 97/2000, Eudora Pro, and others. Questions regarding the MAPI compatibility of your e-mail software should be addressed to the manufacturer. When using Outlook Express Depending on the version, you may need to set Outlook Express as the standard MAPI client. Consult the Outlook Express user manual for instructions on MAPI client settings. Capture This refers to activities related to bringing in still pictures and movie files from sources such as disks, cameras connected directly to your computer, and existing media, as would be the case in selecting and

Basic terms used in ImageMixer
IEEE1394
Also called 'I Triple E 1394,' this interface is best known for facilitating very fast data transfer speeds
(up to 400Mbps). It is used primarily as an output interface (DV connector) for digital video cameras or
hard disk drives. Other names for this interface include i.LINK (in Windows), and FireWire (in
Macintosh).
MPEG
MPEG stands for Moving Picture Experts Group. MPEG is an international data compression format for
digital movies and Hi-Fi audio. MPEG-1 is the approved format for Video CDs, and its brilliant
audio/video quality is comparable to that of VHS videotape. MPEG movies are stored as smaller files
than DV (digital video) movies of the same length, making it the standard movie format for Internet-
related activities. The MPEG-2 format also creates high quality images, but is used primarily for DVDs
and Digital Satellite Broadcasting.
Exif
Based originally on JPEG and TIFF file types, this format is used for still pictures taken with digital
cameras. Exif files contain detailed information (such as the date/time the photo was taken, image size,
shutter speed, etc.) on individual pictures.
MAPI
This is an acronym for "Messaging Application Programming Interface." It is the standard API
(application programming interface) specification recommended by Microsoft for e-mail related
activities. Usually, without MAPI, application software is unable to share data with other applications.
(This would mean, for example, that ImageMixer would only be able to exchange data within itself.) In
ImageMixer, MAPI acts as a sort of bridge between the ImageMixer application and your e-mail
software. When MAPI compatible e-mail software is used, layouts created in ImageMixer can be sent
via e-mail directly from the ImageMixer user interface.
MAPI compatible e-mail software includes Microsoft Outlook Express, Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft
Outlook 97/2000, Eudora Pro, and others. Questions regarding the MAPI compatibility of your e-mail
software should be addressed to the manufacturer.
When using Outlook Express
Depending on the version, you may need to set Outlook Express as the standard MAPI client.
Consult the Outlook Express user manual for instructions on MAPI client settings.
Capture
This refers to activities related to bringing in still pictures and movie files from sources such as disks,
cameras connected directly to your computer, and existing media, as would be the case in selecting and
