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 Audio Settings

For example, with GC553G2, you can adjust not only HDMI audio input but also headphones and microphone volumes.

Device Audio Settings

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

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.

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.
