The Video Size for scheduled recordings can be adjusted via this sub-menu. You can either use a pre-defined size (Full size, Half-screen, quarter size) or a custom size via the list item ‘Other’.

Note that full size video requires a fast processor.

Four presets enable you a quick access to the most common settings. A custom value can be entered by selecting ‘Custom’ in the presets.
