Rate menu, Size, Use:
Choose the highest rate, 16 bits and Stereo for general use. If data size is critical, lower quality settings can be used.
In addition to the three panels described above, the following sound settings are always available on the right hand side of the Sound Settings dialog:
Speaker menu:
Controls when sound is played. The recommended choice is "Off While Recording". Sound will still be captured during recording, it just won't be played during capture in order to
reduce the strain on the processor.
Volume:
Controls the speaker volume any time sound is being played.
Gain:
It is a good idea to check this setting before capturing. If sound is coming in loud and distorted, or too faintly, adjust this setting accordingly. Ideally, input sound should
occasionally peak at one red light in the left and/or right channels as shown in the illustration.
Record video
When "Record Video" is checked, video will be captured during recording. If you only wish to capture sound, uncheck this item.
Record sound
When "Record Sound" is checked, sound will be captured during recording. See the description of the Sound Settings dialog above for more information about capturing sound.

Capture launches.
Custom Size...
Use this option to define an arbitrary frame size. Some capture hardware may not support every size, and video may disappear or be clipped in unexpected ways.
Full Screen
Use this option to switch to full screen viewing mode. Note that a fast processor and a supported graphics card will be required to achieve acceptable frame rates. Type command-F,
escape, or hit the space-bar to exit full screen mode.
Wide Screen
Use this option to switch to wide screen viewing mode. This is similar to Full Screen mode, but expands the video to fill the available horizontal screen space. The top and bottom of the
video are discarded. This is useful when viewing wide screen format DVDs.
Record...
Once all the settings have been selected, select "Record" to record a QuickTime movie. A dialog will be presented asking where the movie is to be saved. The movie will be recorded
until the mouse button is clicked or the hard drive becomes full. If a movie is particularly long, greater than 30 minutes for example, it may take some time to stop the recording. Be patient. It will
eventually finish.
The files recorded by VideoGlide Capture can be imported into any QuickTime savvy video-editing package.
Record Duration...
The same as Record except that you will be asked to specify the duration of the recording session. This is handy if you know how long a piece of video lasts and don't want to have to
return to the machine to halt the recording.
