Defining your video display and capture settings
1. Click to display the Video Options panel.
2. Drag the video quality slider to adjust the level of compression to apply. Setting a high
value produces better output display, but in effect, creates larger file sizes as you increase it.
3. Drag the frame rate slider to specify how many frames to record per second when
capturing.
4. Click to open the Video Format dialog box of your capture driver for specifying video compression, frame
size, color channels, and other settings. This dialog box varies depending on the type of capture driver and device
you have installed in your system.
