We’d like to be able to give users the option to change video settings to their liking. For example, if the video is set to 1080p by default, they might want to reduce the quality to 720p for whatever reason later.

Is there a way to change video settings on the fly?

We tried making a new `VideoSettings` object dynamically, but it would result in either `[VOE][WARN]slot full : s0 int 0x00000004 ...` debug messages with no video or `Bus Fault` crashes.

Hi @at_and_red ,

In our current sdk, realtime changing video setting such as resolution, fps etc are not supported yet.

Some APIs need to be added or modified to realize this feature.

Thanks for the feedback, @Pammy!

It’s not necessarily high on our priority list right now, so don’t feel too pressured to add it. We realize we can probably implement this later once we’re more confident that the product we’re developing with our client is feasible and decide to move forward with the NDA SDK.

Sure, if you decided to move to NDA SDK in future you may fill in the form here [Buying IC/ NDA SDK related](https://forum.amebaiot.com/t/buying-ic-nda-sdk-related/1037)
