Channels Settings

Before you can start watching the channels you need to configure them. The channels setting depends on the capture device used and will look differently for a specific device:

Web camera - you can add the web camera video image to the favorite list so that it could be displayed in the Favorite window and you could easily switch to it. Click the Add to Favorites button to add the web camera channel to the favorite list.

DV Camera or VCR - you can add the DV Camera or VCR video image to the favorite list so that it could be displayed in the Favorite window and you could easily switch to it. Click the Add to Favorites button to add the DV Camera or VCR channel to the favorite list.

Digital TV tuner - before you can add the Digital TV tuner channels to the favorite list, you need to configure the channels. To do that click the Scan button to start scanning for the channels of the stations broadcasting on this satellite, cable or terrestrial network.

After the tuner finds the channels you can select the necessary stations from the list of the present ones, set their additional properties and add them to the favorites list. Press the Properties button to configure the channels:

In the opened window you can see the information on the channel and can select the Audio Stream in your preferred language if there are several of them. To add the channels to the favorite list tic them and click the Add to Favorites button. The channels already in the Favorites list will be marked with a red dot on the list in the settings window. Note that the channels protected from the free watching will be marked as Scrambled, the other channels will be marked Free. To clear the list of the channels click the Clear button, after that you can perform a new scan pressing the Scan button.

TV tuner - similarly to the Digital TV tuner setting, you will need to set the channels list first.

Click the Scan button to start scanning for the channels. You will be offered the opportunity to scan all the channels the tuner supports, continue the channels scan, if you started some scan before but interrupted for some reason or scan only the selected channels range, that can be set in the below boxes. You can also clear the channels list before you start scanning for new channels or leave it as it was to append the newly found channels to the list:

Note, that you can add the channels with good signal to the favorites list during the channels scan. To do that simply mark the Automatically add the channels with good signal to the favorites list checkbox in the Scan Parameters window.

After the tuner finds the channels you can select the necessary stations from the list of the present ones and add them to the favorites list, ticking them and clicking the Add to Favorites button. The channels already in the Favorites list will be marked with a red dot on the list in the settings window. To clear the list of the channels click the Clear list button, after that you can perform a new scan pressing the Scan button.
