and saves key video segments. In CLIP mode, video is continuously recorded
as in traditional video recording. Recording, playback and set-up are controlled

The POV.1 records its videos using MPEG4, so you can use your Windows XP,
Windows Vista, or Mac computer to view them.
Mac:
Plug the POV.1 into a USB port or insert the SD card into a card reader in your
computer. After a simple installation of quicktime components for MPEG-4, you'll
be able to browse all of the videos, view them through Quicktime, and edit them in iMovie!
PC:
Install V.I.O.'s POV Manager software: simple, intuitive software that
allows you to view, edit, and share video easily. For example:
- A “POV Recorder” window shows thumbnails of videos saved on the
- connected POV.1, and a “POV Library” window shows thumbnails
- of videos stored on your hard drive.
- Drag and drop video clips from the POV Recorder to the POV Library to
- move them between the POV.1 and your computer, or drag onto a play
- area to play them back in either actual size or full screen.
- See tags on the timeline during playback, and extract clips to the
- “Storyboard” window to quickly edit your video.
- Use the “Share” function to email your clips and upload them to V.I.O.
- where they can be seen by your friends.
System requirements:
- USB 2.0 port or SD card reader
- Windows: Microsoft Windows XP or Vista and a CD-ROM drive
- Macintosh: Macintosh OS X 10.4.7 or higher
V.I.O. releases frequent updates to it’s POV Manager software, which is
free to all POV.1 customers. Upcoming features will include titling, audio overlays,
