How to Use

Connect the video/audio HDMI source to the video capture card using the appropriate

HDMI cable.

Stream Catcher

Double-click the “StreamCatcher” icon on the desktop to launch the video

capture application. This will bring up the main menu screen that contains

the video preview window and recording controls. Additional options and

configurations can be accessed through the Main Menu.
Initial Setup Note: If you have a video source connected, but are not able

to view anything in the video window, go to the “Settings” section first, to make sure

the “device” is configured properly. If using an HDCP protected video source (i.e. retail

Blu-Ray movie), this will also result in no video preview/capture.
