To change the default pause buffer location licking the symbol spanner//Movies/MPEG.Delay counterThe delay counter indicates the amount of time that the Live video window has been paused.If the delay counter indicates 00:01:23 then the Live video window has been paused for 1 minute and 23 seconds.RewindClicking the Rewind button while playing video will rewind the recorded video. Clicking the Rewind button again will continue the playing.PauseClicking the Pause button causes WinTV to start recording into WinTV's Replay Buffer. It takes about 10 seconds for the Replay Buffer to be initialized and for Pause to become effective. Un-clicking the Pause button will cause the audio/video program to start playing from the point where the button was originally clicked.Most WinTV functions are active while in the Pause or Pause Live mode. For example, you can change volume, resize the TV window, go into 'no-title mode', etc. While in Pause mode, the Video Position bar shows the amount of the Replay Buffer which is filled with video.
For example, if the Video Position indicator shows halfway, it means that half of the Replay Buffer is filled. If you find you cannot Pause as many minutes as you would like, increase the size of the Replay Buffer.While in Pause mode, the A/V stream is always saved in the Replay Buffer.

Each click of the Replay button causes audio/video to go back 10 seconds.For example, if you want to repeat the audio/video you saw 10 seconds ago, you would click the Replay button once. If you want to see the video you saw one minute ago, you would need to click the Replay button six times.For extended replay times, you might find it more convenient to grab the Video Position indicator control bar and move it to the left. Once you let the control bar go, audio/video starts to play (it might take a few seconds for the WinTV application to start playing).You might have to move the Video Position indicator to the left and right to find the desired spot to start replaying audio/video. While Replaying, your audio/video program continues to be recorded in the Replay Buffer.
Therefore, if you have clicked the Replay button 3 times (so that you are replaying the audio/video seen 30 seconds ago), the video you see in the WinTV window will be 30 seconds behind the 'live' audio/video program.Skip AheadClicking the Skip button will skip the video ahead 10 seconds.

Good for the casual streamer/video maker.I like this little box. I feel it was a solid buy even in the face of more popular devices like the Elgato HD 60. Now of course I'm not really comparing the two but for someone looking to get started streaming last gen and current gen consoles through the PC (as opposed to the native streaming capabilities of current gen consoles) this device will do the trick. If you're the type that only wants the latest and greatest - this isn't for you. However if you don't mind that sort of thing or are on a tight budget see if you can grab one of these on the cheap.Verified purchase: Yes Condition: Pre-owned. Easy installation but not so user friendlyI found the installation to be a breeze and it was pretty self explanatory but I'm not a fan of the way it is required to work and essentially becomes the power behind your tv, and if it goes out, your screen will go black as well, same with its requirement to be hooked up to a computer at all times, where if you restart your computer, once again, your screen goes black.
Its a good product but I personally didn't like it due to its requirement to be hooked up to multiple devices to work.not to mention it doesn't always communicate well with said devices, leading to audio delay and thats just the games audio, I couldn't even use a microphone with all of this rendering the device almost completely worthless because I need my headset for the games i'm intending to play and it won't record a ny audio if I use the headset.Verified purchase: Yes Condition: Pre-owned.
