14.2.1 Creating a Windows Shortcut that Uses Command Line Options
You can use video capture application command line options by creating a Windows
shortcut to the video capture application executable file and editing the shortcut to add
command line options. In the following procedure, the video capture application
executable file v2ugui2.exe has been installed in the folder C:\Program
Files\DVI2USB30:
1. Open Windows Explorer and navigate the following path:
C:\Program Files\DVI2USB30
2. Right click on the file v2ugui2.exe and select Create Shortcut. Windows creates a
shortcut file that, depending on your Windows settings, may be named “Shortcut
to v2ugui2.exe.lnk”. The “.lnk” may not appear if Windows does not display file
extensions. You can change the name of this file and copy it to another location if
required. Don’t change the file extension.
3. Right click on the shortcut file and select Properties.
4. Edit the Target field and add command line options after the closing quote. For
example, to add the --topmost command line option:
"C:\Program Files\DVI2USB30\v2ugui2.exe" –topmost
For example, to add --topmost and --borderless, set the horizontal shift to -67,
and the vertical shift to 10:
"C:\Program Files\DVI2USB30\v2ugui2.exe" –topmost --borderless --hs -67 --vs
10
5. Select OK to save your changes to the shortcut.
6.
Double-click on the shortcut to start the video capture application with the
command line options.
