How to Set Recording Quality ( From High Quality to Low Quality )
Note: This setting does not apply to external codecs and only applies to oCam's built-in codecs. Lowering the recording quality will reduce the size of the recorded video file, but the video quality will also decrease.
There is a menu at the top of oCam. Click Tools - Options, then click Encoding on the left, and you can select the quality as shown below. By default, it is set to Very High (high quality).
You can choose from the following quality levels when recording.
Below are captured preview images showing the recorded quality from Very High to Very Low.

How to Fix Severe Lag When Recording Games in Nox App Player
If you experience severe lag when starting game recording with oCam, you can resolve the issue by changing the settings as described below. In particular, if you are using Nox App Player, follow these steps to reduce lag and achieve smoother recording.
First, launch Nox App Player. After the program starts, click the gear-shaped icon in the upper-right corner of the screen to open the Settings menu. This icon is generally used to access system settings.
When the Settings window opens, select the 'Advanced Settings' tab from the menu on the left. In the Advanced Settings screen, find the 'Graphics Mode' option and change it to 'Speed Mode (DirectX)'. This setting optimizes performance by using system resources more efficiently and is especially effective for reducing lag during game recording. After making the change, click the 'Save Settings' button to apply it.
After saving the settings, you must completely close and restart Nox App Player. Once it restarts, the changed graphics mode will be applied, which can reduce lag and provide smoother performance when recording games with oCam.
This method is useful for resolving performance issues that occur when using Nox App Player together with oCam. If the problem continues after changing the settings, it is recommended to check your system specifications or review other oCam settings, such as frame rate and resolution, for additional optimization.
