Recording with the TV Tuner Control
1. Be sure that your TV Tuner card is installed correctly or your PowerVCR II
screen will be blank.
2. Start PowerVCR II. Click the source indicator until the indicator reads TV if
you have an antenna or CATV if you have a cable wire.
Note: PowerVCR II will automatically detect and select the country region of your cable
provider and the correct video signal format. If not, please see Changing System Settings
for more details.
3. Click the arrow located on the right edge of the PowerVCR II panel to activate
the TV Tuner Control.
4. Select a desired channel by using the number pad or left and right arrows.
5. Click on Return to return to the last channel.
6. Click Auto Scan to scan all the possible channels. To cancel the scanning, click
Cancel once the Auto Scan dialog box appears and you will be returned to the
original channel.
Note: Unlike the playback volume, the recording volume is automatically set and is not
allowed for adjustment in PowerVCR II.
Note: Keep in mind that the TV Tuner Control only works with capture devices utilizing
WDM drivers.
7. After you have selected the desired channel, click Record.
Tips: While recording, click on the recording button to display the Recording Timer menu.
Select one of the time durations and PowerVCR II will automatically stop the recording
once the set time duration has expired.
8. Click Stop when you are finished.
9. The playlist will appear for you to save it.
Info: Because of the inherent limitations of the Windows operating system in
handling files over 2 GB, PowerVCR II will automatically save and chunk your
video files into 600 MB files if the file's size is over this limit. Thus, when you
select the appropriate playlist for playback, all the chunked files will play
continuously like a single file.
