Toggle to enable or disable custom video output settings
The default settings (disable) use the Apple default video settings which is 1080p for most devices. High Efficiency format (HEVC, H.265) is available for supported devices running iOS 11 or higher (iPhone 7/7 Plus or newer. iPad Pro (10.5)/iPad Pro 12.9, 2nd generation or newer. High Efficiency format is not supported on iPod Touch, 6th generation or earlier).
Default settings are recommended as it optimizes battery consumption and CPU cycles.
Available only for supported devices. Choose between High Efficiency (HEVC) or Most Compatible. HEVC, also know as H.265, allows for reduced file sizes for the same quality. Most Compatible uses H.264 and is best if you aren't part of the Apple ecosystem.
Choices are 720p (30 or 60 fps), 1080p (30 or 60 fps), or 4K Video. NOTE: 4K Video requires HEVC format.
|
NOTE: If using Live Streaming, FPS must be the same as those used for you service. If they are different you will be prompted to pick which FPS setting to use. |

WARNING: When using Alternate Recording Mode saving videos will take considerably longer to process |
What causes MovieWriter errors? The cause of this issue, according to Apple, is a bug in their code and related to pausing and resuming the MovieWriter which is the mechanism used to write a movie to disk. While Apple acknowledges this error on certain devices, and due to the fact that this issue is intermittent, it's doubtful this bug will ever be fixed thus the reason to incorporate an alternative recoding option.
While the errors may not occur frequently (about once every three 20 minute recordings or even less in most cases), when they do occur they can be disrupting to your ScoreCam experience so Alternate Recording Mode may be your best choice.
Shown only when Alternate Recording Mode is ON. The following options are available:
