The RECORD command initiates real-time recording of motion video with audio capture.
The functionality of video record, capture, and monitor is performed through an media control interface logical device. An association between a logical device name and any video capture cards is established automatically during installation. Digitalvideo01 is the logical device that supports playback only, with unmodified functionality from the original OS/2 multimedia installation, and is not associated with a capture device. Digitalvideo02 (and higher) enables capture and recording, and is associated with capture hardware. These logical device names are produced by default through installation of OS/2 multimedia and Video IN for OS/2.
Note: Only a single actively recording instance is supported at a time, as video capture hardware does not support concurrent use. Multiple instances of the MCD can be opened, but only one recording instance can be open.
