Menu Options
This section will describe all settings and choices for all of the menu options along the top of the CapWiz Interface.
• Video Inputs/Outputs:
This dialog box allows you to quickly change your video input and output choices. Here you can choose between
RCA, S-VHS or DV Inputs (Instant DVD + DV only) and RCA or S-VHS outputs. These settings can also be changed
by running the Capture Wizard Screens.
• Video Format:
The Video format dialog box allows you to quickly change your video format for NTSC or PAL. If you are not sure
of the correct selection, run the Capture Wizard and read the document called “Learn more about worldwide
Video Standards".
The Video format box also allows you to quickly set your video resolution and quality setting. You can choose:
a. DVD at Good, Better or Best Quality
b. Super Video CD (SVCD)
c. VCD
There are no quality settings for SVCD or VCD as these formats have standard video and audio bit rates.
CapWiz will display the following standard video capture settings based upon your USB Connection.
USB 2.0 Connection USB 1.1
DVD Settings - 4, 6 or 9 Megabits per second (Mb/sec.) 2.5, 3 or 4 MB/sec.*

VCD - MPEG-1 video at 1.15 Mb/sec. Same
The Video format and bit rate (4, 6 or 9 Mb/sec) for DVD video will be displayed in a status area of the CapWiz
interface so you will always know what video format and bit rate you are recording.
*If connected at USB 1.1 Full Speed the maximum video bit rate is 4 Mb/sec.
