Depending on your VGA graphics card and capture card, you may not be able
to override the hardware default setting for video overlay. When hardware

employs the overlay mode, less CPU resources are consumed, speed is faster,

video quality is better, but less stable than non-overlay mode (when

PowerVCR regulates video display performance).

Selecting your Recording Profile
A recording profile is great for discerning video enthusiasts or hard drives

with a limited amount of space. Choose a profile that will suit your recording
requirements. If it's a file that warrants great video quality or only an

experimental recording, PowerVCR's recording profiles are guaranteed to suit

any of your inclinations.

When you first start PowerVCR, the default position will be the Live/Digital
Recorder.
