Video Quality
With the video quality settings you can adjust the image to get the best possible video on your
computer screen.
Video Compression
-- As video captured by camera, you want to send it as a displayable file, not as
raw data. Indeed, it is compressed into a smaller file so it can be sent in less time. Compressing video
makes smoother, more lifelike motion possible, however, compression can also reduce image quality.
On the other hand, less image compression results in a higher image quality, but a big amount of data
and therefore may produce less lifelike motion.
No Compression
-- The video is sent as uncompressed, raw video data. This option produces the
highest image quality, but probably also produces less lifelike motion.
High Quality Compression
-- Video is compressed to produce the best quality image with
adequate lifelike motion. Use this setting when you are more concerned about image quality than
motion, such as when the camera is pointed at a presentation screen.
Fast Frame Rate Compression
-- Video is compressed to produce the best lifelike motion with
adequate image quality. Use this option when motion is more important than image quality, such
as when you're conducting a face-to-face conference.

NOTE: These options control compression done while the camera captures raw data to preview
display mode.
Brightness
-- The brightness setting is like shutter speed on a camera, staying open longer to let in
more light. The higher the setting, the more light that reaches the camera. But if you set it too high,
