Unless there's another method, the only way to adjust the various picture related settings for recording is to edit the direct.ini file. This is for the Hauppauge 250 and kin.

This seems rather trial and error. Record something, watch it, make a change, record, watch, change....

It would be nice to be able to make the change with a preview window open and see them, even if it's slightly delayed due to the encoder.

I guess another option would be to use the WinTV2000 settings, so we could adjust them there.

My new card seems brighter than my old one. I can get the settings to look pretty good in WinTV, but GBPVR looks overly bright and washed out.

Just leave GB-PVR on the defaults, then fiddle the values in the Hauppauge tweak tool.

I can't get that to 'stick' I guess I am doing something wrong. I keep brightness=68 in my direct.ini.
