<desc>The resolution of a video or photo determines how much detail you can
19
see in it, changing it will affect the file size.</desc>
23
<title>Change the capture resolution of your webcam</title>
25
<p>Higher resolution generally means better quality images, but photos and
26
videos with higher resolution take up more space on your hard disk. High
27
resolution videos, in particular, take up a lot of space.</p>
29
<p>If you want your images to take up less disk space, reduce the resolution
30
of your webcam. If you want better quality images, increase the resolution. To
31
change the webcam resolution:</p>
35
<p>Click <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Preferences</gui></guiseq>.</p>
38
<p>Choose a different resolution from the drop-down list. Some webcams
39
only support one resolution, so you may not have a choice.</p>

<p>Click <gui>Close</gui>.</p>
