Note that StreamPlayer always uses the latest Windows Media Player installed on your
computer. You cannot choose a specific player.
General
Computer
resources allocated
to Windows Media
Player This setting allocates computer video resource preferences.
Depending on the computer environment, StreamPlayer may require
higher priority than other non-real time processes that may be running
on the desktop. The computer Resource Allocation (priority) may be
set for Normal, Above Normal, Highest, or Critical for MPEG-1,
MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 decoding. If performance problems are
experienced with either video playback or recording, set Resource
Allocation to a higher level. The defaults are MPEG-1 normal,
MPEG-2 highest, and MPEG-4 above normal.
Closed Captions This selection enables or disables closed captions and determines how
they will be displayed. Enabling
Closed Captions
in the StreamPlayer
Preferences
menu generally enables closed captions in Windows
Media Player.
Overlay Closed Captioning
puts Closed Captions on
top of the video. This is particularly beneficial if the video is viewed
full screen (or if you want TV-like behavior). If not checked, closed
captions will be displayed below or beside the picture.
