• Split Size

capture video according to the format and disc capacity you will be using to
burn your movie. The output les are partitioned according to the capacity of
the disk to be burned (CD/DVD).
• Maximum Recording Time
The maximum recording time will be determined depending on the output
format and amount of hard drive space you have available. Files cannot be
created which exceed this time. This is ideal if you want to monitor and record
activities at home while you are away for short time. (Few hours are ideal).
• Recording duration time
Set the recording duration time you want. This is very handy when you know
the duration of the movie you are capturing. You don’t have to monitor the
capture process, just set the recording duration and will HT Video to DVD will
stop once this time expires. It is always good idea to set record duration time.
If not set, recording will continue up to the maximum recording time.
