4      Notes

4.1    Supported graphics boards

        - ELSA GLoria Synergy ViVo
        - WINNER 2000/Office ViVo

4.2    Settings

       Before starting video in for the first time you should check
       the settings and change them if neccessary.

       Open the Folder OS/2 System > System Setup and start the
       Multimedia Setup program.

       Here you can find the property page "P2VideoIn". On the third
       page there are the "Default Adjustments" for the device driver.
       Check the settings for Input Connector (FBAS or SVHS) and
       Camera (PAL, NTSC, SECAM or NTSC433) by pressing the monitor button.

       You can change the values for brightness, contrast, sharpness,
       tint or color, also.

       These settings are stored by pressing the OK button.

4.3    Plugin fr CUSeeMe/2

       A plugin for the video conferencing program CUSeeMe/2 is a
       part of this driver package.
       To install it you should copy the file ELSAPLUG.DLL in your
       CUSeeMe directory and follow the instructions of CUSeeMe/2
       for the installation of plugins.

       We have tested the plugin with the version CUSeeMe/2 Beta 1.8
       an found some general problems of this beta version in
       conjungation with color pictures.
       So we had to use Pentium II systems in 16bpp resolutions to
       make CUSeeMe/2 work satisfactory.

5      Restrictions

       - No multiboard support

6      Caveats / Known Problems

6.1    FixPak3

       DIVE doesn't perform a color conversion in TrueColor mode. Hence
       it follows that in most cases the Software Motion Video will
       be used.

       fix : replace the system file DIVE.DLL by the corresponding file
             of your backup (unpack dive.dl_).

6.2    Performance

       Poor performnce at 16bpp, you are supposed to use 32bpp
