Video Source
figure 1: The Video Source Option Settings
This option (figure 1) tells Snappy how it should process the incoming video signal. It is necessary because not all video sources generate the same kind of video signal.
Live Camera
When you select the Live Camera setting, you are telling Snappy that you have connected a very stable video source to it. It doesn't necessarily have to be a camera; industrial or professional video tape recorders (with built-in time base correctors) and many laserdisc players (while playing, not in pause) are also stable. If you are not using a live camera, and you are not sure if you have a stable video source, then you should use the Tape/VCR setting.
Tape/VCR
You should use this setting for all other video sources you use with Snappy.
