While the capture device features a DVI In port, the Stream Catcher software can

support multiple sources. If the source you’ve connected is not displaying in the

Follow the below steps to congure Stream Catcher for your DVI source.

2. Click the Device Settings button.

3. Select the pull-down menu below Video Source and choose DVI from the list, and

click the OK button.

Note: This device will not capture HDCP protected content. If your DVI source is

HDCP protected, such as a retail Blu-ray Disc®, the video preview window will not be

visible.

Manually record video

1. Press the Record button when you want to capture video. The frame around the

video window will turn red, to indicate that content is being recorded.
