Configuring your camera settings
Camera settings are set to the highest quality available by default, so you can just start recording. If you would like to change the camera input or other camera settings perform the following steps:
To configure your Camera Settings as the Primary Input
- Click on the Settings icon.
- Scroll down and select Set as Primary.
- Select the Input source (camera) you are going to record from, from the drop-down menu. If there is more than one camera connected to your PC, select the Input source you want to record from.
- The optimal camera settings are defined for you automatically, however, you can change the following settings:
- a. Resolution: Recording of the highest quality is produced when the resolution is maximal. Selecting a lower resolution reduces the recording quality and the size of the resulting file.
b. FPS (Frames per Second). We recommend using 30 frames per second. Using less frames might result in blurring of fast movements.
c. Color Space – Represents the image in colors.
d. Encoder – Select the encoder from the dropdown menu.
e. Bitrate – Select the bitrate.
f. Encoder Profile - Select High, Main or Baseline - You can preview all changes in the Preview Window. After completing your Camera Settings, click Back to go back to the main recording window.
The camera settings cannot be altered in the middle of the recording. It is important to make sure all your settings are complete before you start recording.
