In the Captured Content area you can right click on media to perform a number of
options, including detecting scenes in video clips and deleting unwanted content
so that it won't import into the Edit window.
The content captured in CyberLink PowerDirector is stored in the folder noted
underneath the Captured Content area. If you want to store it in a different location,
click the Change Folder button and select a different folder.
Quality Profile Setup
To set the file format and quality of the media you capture, click the Profile button.
If this button is grayed out, that means that the original format and quality of the
media is maintained, as set on the original media device (camcorder, etc.).
The profile settings that are available depend on the capture device connected and
the capture mode you have selected.
Capture Settings
Use the Settings button to configure the set up of your selected capture device. The
capture settings that are available depend on the capture device connected and the

the specific disc drive you want to capture from.
