Understanding and Using Audio and Video on Your Computer
Nearly every PC sold today is in effect a "multimedia" computer, but just how do you use it to its full potential? With sound and vision available at the touch of a keyboard, your PC need no longer be solely confined to keeping records of your finances or writing the novel that is going to make you rich and famous. You can have a lot of fun with it too. You no longer need to go to the cinema or record store. With some additional hardware your PC can do far more than just play the sound effects in 'Tomb Raider'. It can play audio CDs and videos, download video and music from the Internet, manipulate your home video clips, create your own sound files and even become your TV.
'Screen Shots' takes you through each application and its clear and structured organisation will enable you to progress with confidence and at your own pace, with windows presented sequentially as they occur when working. The unique colour coded arrow system ensures you get the results you want, green for "do this", orange for "here's a helpful hint" and red for "make sure you really want to do that". There are also hints and shortcuts to help you work really effectively.
