Logic 3 V5.00 - Manual (Page 14)

1.2 Live Viewer Window
By default, the “Live Viewer” window will open once the program has loaded. If “Auto Logon” is disabled, you
must log in before the “Live Viewer” window is opened.
Note:
The Live Viewer window may be slightly different depending on the capture card that is
installed, the rendering mode enabled (hardware vs. software), and the number of supported video
channels. See section 5.2.6 for details.
The “Live Viewer” window can be in either software rendered mode or hardware rendered mode. If your
capture card supports hardware rendered mode, it can be enabled by going to “Settings” window | “DVR
Settings” tab | “Live” tab and selecting the Live Viewer mode with the available radio button.
