Before Use
Features
gMovie is the application which enables the display and playback of
motion picture data with sound, made for the CLIÉ handheld by using a
Windows® application such as PictureGear Lite.
When you send movie data made for the CLIÉ handheld by PictureGear
Lite using HotSync operation, or copy the data to the CLIÉ handheld by
using a Memory Stick media, they are automatically registered to the
movie list of gMovie.
This Version (gMovie 1.3) supports playback of color movies, Jog Dial
control, and playback of data stored in a Memory Stick media.
<Precaution with Version 1.3>
· The CLIÉ handheld without audio-function can not play back the
sound, even if the file is with sound data.
· If the CLIÉ handheld is not adaptable to display in color, it is
impossible to view in color, even if the data is in color.
