2. Program environment setting 

 

To set up the Capture program, click the environment setting icon (

) on the control bar or right-click on 

the screen to display a pop-up menu, then select “Environment Settings” to bring up the setting window. 

2.1 Driver 

 

The driver menu consists of the part controlled by the driver side of the capture board as a menu, and you 
can set video and audio input settings and color settings. 
 

■ Video standard   
In external input mode, this menu is used to 
select the video standard to match the video 
standard of the country. For Korea and North 
American regions, NTSC format is used. The 
PAL method is used in Europe and the SECAM 
method in some regions such as France.

   

 

■ Video resolution   

 

In the video resolution menu, you can select 
the input mode and the input resolution/frame 
rate that can be set in each input mode.   

 

- Auto Detect 
The Auto Detect function is a function that 
automatically detects the input resolution and 
automatically sets the screen to fit the size. If 
you set Auto Detect in the video resolution 
menu, it automatically recognizes and sets the 
frame rate that matches the resolution as well 
as the input resolution. 

 

If you select a resolution other than the Auto 
Detect option, you may not be able to get the 
correct resolution. Please select Auto Detect if 
you do not know the exact resolution and 
frame rate because the program does not 

support upscaling or downscaling. 

 
■  Color 

Select the color format of the video image being input. 
The default recommended setting is 16bit (YUY2). 24bit (RGB) may not be supported or the screen may not 
be displayed normally depending on the system environment or various complex situations.   

 

 

■ Video Color Adjustment   
This menu is a menu that allows you to adjust the color (brightness, contrast, hue, saturation) of the input 
image. Since it is set in the input state, the color values set during playback and recording are applied. 
Adjustment can be adjusted by dragging with the mouse.

■ Audio Sampling Rate   

 

You can select the audio sampling rate. The audio sampling rate output from most video equipment is 
48KHz. However, if the connected device outputs at 44.1KHz, it can be input at 44.1KHz in the Capture 
Program. In general use, it is recommended to select “Auto Detect”. 

 

2.2 External device 

In this menu, it is an option to play or record using an external audio input rather than using HDMI input 
audio (when playing or recording). For external audio, you can use the line-in or microphone-in terminal of 
the sound card (chipset), or you can use the audio device of the webcam. Also, in Screen mode, which 
requires the use of a stereo mix device, you must set up a stereo mix through an external device for normal 
audio playback and recording.   
 

 

■ 

Ext Audio Device

 

- Use external audio 
External audio input will be used 

instead of using audio input via HDMI. 

-Speaker output 
If you check the speaker output, you 

can hear the sound input from the 
external audio even during playback, 
and the sound input from the external 
audio is recorded even during recording. 

However if speaker output is not 

selected, external audio is not played 
but sound input from external audio is 
recorded only when recording. 
  - Device 

Set the external audio device you 

want to use. Depending on the device 
type, you can select the sound card 
name or webcam, but there are cases 
where you can select an integrated 
audio mixer device depending on the 
sound driver or settings. 

- Input 
If you select a sound chipset or device, 

set the device you want to input (line in or 
microphone in, etc.). 

 
 
 
 
 

 
■ Screen Audio 

- Device 
Select the audio device of the screen mode function as a stereo mixer.
