About overlays
Overlays are superimposed over the video stream. They are used to provide extra information during recordings, such as a timestamp,
or during product installation and configuration.
About overlay text

display, for example, the current bit rate or the current frame rate.
You can choose between the following text overlay sizes:

Small
Medium
Large
It is also possible to display text when an action rule is triggered, see How to include overlay text in an action rule on page 23.
