Manual
Overview
Aver Media Gaming Utility is a handy tool that helps users obtain their capture card’s information, adjust its audio settings, customize the RGB lighting, and more.
Installation
Visit your capture card’s webpage and download Gaming Utility. Install it by
following the step-by-step instructions
Once installed, you’ll be greeted with an interface shown below.
Note: Gaming Utility currently supports capture cards GC575, GC573, GC571, GC570D, GC555, GC553G2, and GC553. The support list may be updated without prior notice.
Device Information
Located near the upper left of the UI, this function provides information about your capture card, including audio and HDCP settings as you scroll down.
Device Audio Settings
For example, with GC553G2, you can adjust not only HDMI audio input but also
headphones and microphone volumes.
Note: When connecting an audio cable from your controller to GC553G2,
audio capture will automatically switch from HDMI to the controller, with
Controller Input volume control available as shown below.
**HDCP***
Select the proper video and audio source and follow the recommended setting
for your source type.
HDCP detection is a security verification process that occurs while connecting two digital devices (e.g. a player and a monitor) to ensure that transmitted content is protected from unauthorized copying
RGB Control
Light Control
Under the Light Control setting, you have the option to turn On, Off, or enable Third-party light software control (default setting). This allows other light control programs, such as those from ASRock, MSI, and others, to manage the capture card’s lighting to sync with theirs.
Note: To avoid software conflicts, it is recommended to disable all lighting control from other software if you choose to turn it on in Gaming Utility.
Light Effects
When the Light Control setting is turned on, you get to choose from a
collection of lighting effects. Depending on the one you choose, some can be
customized to their color, speed, and brightness.
Settings
The Settings include essential functions such as software and hardware updates, troubleshooting, and more.

left for your capture card to use.
