Saturation: This slider is used to adjust monitor window saturation. The value ranges from 0 to 100. The default
value is 50. The larger the number, the strong the color is. This value has no effect on the general brightness of
the whole video. The video color may become too strong if the value is too high. For the grey part of the video,
the distortion may occur if the white balance is not accurate. Please note the video may not be clear if the
value is too low. The recommended value ranges from 40 to 60.
•
Brightness: This slider is used to adjust monitor window brightness. The value ranges from 0 to 100. The default
value is 50. The larger the number, the brighter the video is. When you input the value here, the bright section
and the dark section of the video will be adjusted accordingly. You can use this function when the whole video
is too dark or too bright. Please note the video may become hazy if the value is too high. The recommended
value ranges from 40 to 60.
•
Contrast: This slider is used to adjust monitor window contrast. The value ranges from 0 to 100. The default
value is 50. The larger the number is, the higher the contrast is. You can use this function when the whole video
brightness is OK but the contrast is not correct. Please note the video may become hazy if the value is too low.
If this value is too high, the dark section may lack brightness while the bright section may over expose. The
recommended value ranges from 40 to 60.
•
Sharpness: This slider is used to adjust the sharpness of the video. The value ranges from 0 to 100. The larger
