Hi :) Yeh, i think we guessed that you used a scanner rather than a video-player.
Don't worry! Many of us have difficulty remembering the names of whassnames compared to thingumybobs. Luckily double-clicking or typing in a bit of a description usually brings up the right tool. Errr, it's only Windows where you really need to know the right name and if you are using xsane and xine then i'm guessing you are either on Gnu&Linux or Mac so you are safe. (sorry, couldn't resist the urge to have a dig at W! ;) Have a good weekend all!
