• Size - Adjusts the size of the image. By default, the image overlay's size will auto-adjust to the current output frame
size. This means that the image will be overlaid according to its relative size regardless of the output resolution.
When Absolute Sizing is enabled, the image overlay's size is linked to the native size of the source image. When
Absolute Sizing option is checked, the image overlay will appear smaller at higher output resolutions and larger at
lower output resolutions.
• Opacity - Specifies the opacity of the image
