• Video size - video resolution supported by the camera and LearningSpace
• Quality - the quality of the camera image on a 10 scale (the lower the worse is the camera image but the smaller is the recording size)

• Audio source - source of audio for the camera feed

• . If available, built-in microphone will be the default audio source.

  Info
  For cameras without built-in audio, one of the external audio sources has to be selected from the Audio source drop-down, in order the camera to be able to be assigned to a room within LearningSpace. In case the "use without audio" option is selected, you can assign the camera to a room but the videos will be recorded without audio, which means that in this case audio track will not be recorded.

• Audio gain (dB) - volume setting for the audio source (built-in mic or selected source): you can change the volume of the audio by increasing or lowering the audio gain
• White balance - adjustment of the intensity of white color in the camera feed: how should the camera handle light exposure (change the image if it is too bright or too dark)
  
  

• Upside down - for ceiling-mounted PTZ camera types, checking this setting allows for switching the original (ceiling) perspective: it flips the camera image by 180 degrees.
