Editing Artist Help:Effects Video and Capture

The Video Manager provides access to video clips and video capture devices installed on your computer. These can be output to arrays of fixture parameters to provide an exciting new kind of effect. These effects are particularly pertinent to arrays (matrixes) of colour mixing LED fixture but can have serendipitous results or dimmers, shutter and even mirrors.

=== Try the example Cues ===
* Open Artist to full screen and display the first fixture group. 
* Open the Operator GUI and position and size it so you can see the fixture at the same time. 
* Select 'Cue List 1' and try each of these cues: Skiing, Moth and Fire. 

The video clips for these are effects are installed in the Video Manager by default. You can add you own video clips by referring to the Video Manager help.

The Matrix column of the Macros tab contains two basic video macros. These macros do not provide the video clip source; you must select that yourself.

=== The Capture Source ===
This works in exactly the same was as the video clip except that the source is the Windows installed video capture device.
