be clear if the value is too low. The recommended value ranges from 40 to 60.
• Brightness: This slider is used to adjust monitor window brightness. The value ranges from 0 to 100. The
default value is 50. The larger the number, the brighter the video is. When you input the value here, the bright
section and the dark section of the video will be adjusted accordingly. You can use this function when the
whole video is too dark or too bright. Please note the video may become hazy if the value is too high. The
recommended value ranges from 40 to 60.
• Contrast: This slider is used to adjust monitor window contrast. The value ranges from 0 to 100. The default
value is 50. The larger the number is, the higher the contrast is. You can use this function when the whole
video brightness is OK but the contrast is not correct. Please note the video may become hazy if the value is
too low. If this value is too high, the dark section may lack brightness while the bright section may over expose.
The recommended value ranges from 40 to 60.
