 For Capture Performance, if you want your VGA card to regulate the video
overlay so less CPU resources are consumed, speed is faster, but less stable than
non-overlay mode in some cases (depending on your VGA card), click Use video
overlay.
 In the DV Parameter Setup section, click Setup... to set up the buffer parameters
for your DV camcorder.
 All DV camcorders’ mechanisms and the time it takes for the tape to start
rolling differ in seconds. Thus, if there is no buffer time, batch capturing
will begin too early. Enter the time you would like to buffer your DV tape
so that batch capturing will coincide with it. The tape will begin playing
during this buffer time and after it has elapsed, capturing takes place.
 When writing to tape, all DV camcorders’ mechanisms and the time it
takes for the tape to start rolling differ in seconds. Setting an adequate
buffer time for sending video stream to your tape eliminates these
differences so that when the tape begins writing, it coincides with the
beginning of the video stream feed. Click OK.
