Live - Set preferences

To access and change preferences such as data and capture folder locations, hot keys and auto-save options, you use the Preferences dialog box.

This topic introduces some of the ways you can customize Live.

Change the threshold for low disk space warning

Shogun Live warns you if your capture drive(s) reaches a specified capacity.

To change the amount of free space remaining before Shogun Live alerts you:

1. Open the Preferences dialog box (Settings > Preferences, or Shift+P).
2. In User Preferences, go to the General section and make the required changes.
   The default free space remaining is:
   • For optical data capture: 10 GB
   • For video capture: 50 GB

You can also select or clear a check box to warn you if video cameras are enabled when video capture is not currently selected.

Change the behavior of the middle mouse button

You can scrub the timeline by holding down the middle mouse button. You can use this shortcut in both the 3D View and the Cameras view.

You can adjust the behavior of the middle mouse button with options in the Preferences dialog box.

To change the settings for the middle mouse button or wheel:

1. Open the Preferences dialog box (Shift-P).

2. In User Preferences, go to the General section and select or clear the required settings.

   Note that the effect of changing the Middle mouse button scrub sensitivity (or the Mouse wheel jog in frames) option is exponential and is the same as the equivalent setting in Post.
