frame rate in the camera property window. The following values are available:
Speed Priority: This is the default setting. It gives you a faster frame rate for the best real-time video
conferencing during the day. However, at night or in a dark environment, the image does not have the
best quality.
Balance: This gives you a balance between speed and image quality. The image obtained at night or in a
