xConfiguration Video Input Source [1..5] Quality:
<Motion/Sharpness>
When encoding and transmitting video there will be a tradeoff between high resolution and high framerate.
For some video sources it is more important to transmit high framerate than high resolution and vice versa.
The Quality setting specifies whether to give priority to high frame rate or to high resolution for a given
source. Addresses the selected video input connector.
Motion: Gives the highest possible framerate. Used when there is a need for higher frame rates, typically
when a large number of participants are present or when there is a lot of motion in the picture.
Sharpness: Gives the highest possible resolution. Used when you want the highest quality of detailed
images and graphics.
Example:
xConfiguration Video Input Source 1 HDMI 1 Quality: Motion
