Video framerate will depend on the Skyris model used and the exposure. If the exposure time is slower than the camera's maximum frame rate, the FPS count will closely match the exposure time (1/exposure time). For iCap version 2.3 and older, use the dropdown menu to select the framerate closest to the exposure time used. For example, if the exposure time is 1/34 sec, select 30 FPS. 9. In the Capture menu, select Toggle Recording Info Dialog. 10. Click on the Codec icon to access the Recording Settings window. We highly recommend selecting Uncompressed to retain the full image quality and size. Note that Uncompressed will consume a significant amount of hard disk space in a very short time. Be mindful of the file sizes when creating AVI files. Choose RGB32 or Y800. For Skyris color cameras, choose RGB32 which will record in color, making export easier. You can also select Y800 in color models; however, you must debayer (color convert) the image later when processing. RegiStax is included with your software CD and will debayer the images. You may also capture in Y16 mode to retain the full bit depth of the camera. Y16 video must be exported to a program that supports 16-bit video, which is not included with Skyris. 8
