Product Reviews

Available in two versions!

Your Video On The Web is another state-of-the-art video product from ViewCast.com, the premier supplier of equipment to the streaming video market. 

Your Video on the Web integrates professional-level video capture, editing and streaming products into one low-cost consumer package. At the heart of Your Video on the Web is ViewCast.com�s Osprey-50, either a plug-in PCI computer card or USB device enabling PCs to capture and stream videos. The Osprey card is the de facto standard for streaming Internet video. 

Bundled with the Osprey-50 capture device is RealNetworks RealProducer and RealPlayer applications. RealProducer and RealPlayer are used by millions worldwide to create and play back Internet video. RealProducer turns video captured by the Osprey-50 into a RealNetworks G2 Stream, the Internet�s most widely used streaming format. It also compresses video so that it takes up a smaller amount of disk space and network bandwidth. This allows videos to be streamed from web sites or sent as e-mail attachments. RealPlayer allows users to play their own RealNetworks G2 videos or ones that are streamed from the Internet.

Also included with Your Video on the Web is MGI VideoWave II SE Plus software, which enables users to customize videos on their PCs.  VideoWave can be used to apply audio tracks, titles, transitions and special effects to videos.  It can even mix two clips as one.  A preview capability allows users to view their work as they create it.
