Device Control dialog box

Current device Displays the current device control in use for controlling your video recorder. You can select another device control driver from the drop-down list to be the active device.

Timecode offset Specify a value to adjust the discrepancy between the real playing time of your device and the trimming marks specified in the DV Recording dialog box. If for example you have specified the mark in timecode for capturing and then after the process, the captured start frame is the frame before the actual mark in timecode, you can then set a value of -4 to correct the timing between the device and your capture board. (This option is applicable only in the Video Capture program and is disabled in Video Editor.)
