[comp.multimedia] Viewing files from MIC frame grabber

UH2@psuvm.psu.edu (Lee Sailer) (02/04/91)

I have some files that were created using a hardware video frame grabber
called something like a MIC.  This is on a ISA msdos machine.

Can anyone suggest how I might view this file?  I've tried HIJAAK, in
hopes that MIC stores the file in some standard format with no luck.

Any ideas welcome.

I suspect that the MIC which you are refering to is the Multimedia Interactive
Control language which a number of video overlay boards use.

This is produced by a UK company called VideoLogic, whose main product is a
video in windows board called the DVA-4000/<ISA|MCA|Mac>.

I believe that they are now, or shortly will be, shipping a version of the
MIC software which includes a utility for converting to Targa format.

I suggest you contact their US distribution arm:
   VideoLogic Inc
   245 First Street, Suite 1403
