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\VGA2USB DVI2USB KVM2USB\.
1 Open Windows Explorer and navigate the following path:

C:\Program Files\VGA2USB DVI2USB KVM2USB

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.

--gain <#>

Set the gain (contrast)*. The range is 0 to 255.

Enter this parameter so that you can disable

exiting image only mode by Pressing the Esc

key. You can always press Alt+F4 to exit from

the video capture application.

To keep the video capture application window

on top.
