Recorded video

For recording video, your organization’s Multi SA sets a resolution, depending on storage and application needs. Resolution settings for recorded video are discussed in the Admin user guide, K5403. The flexibility of setting resolutions independently for recording video contributes to optimal system performance.

The setting for the resolution of recorded video does not change when live video alters its resolution on-the-fly.
