Hi,

Is it possible to change the resolution of the USB camera?
For IP cameras, it can be changed from "Camera Settings" -> "Advanced", but for USB cameras there is no "Advanced" tab.
I can change "Resolution" by right-clicking on the camera screen, but you can only select "Auto, Hight, Low".
Is there any way to specify the resolution of the USB camera?
For example, can I freely change the resolution by using the REST API "Replace Device record (/rest/v1/devices/{id})"?

  Hi Daiki Kato,

  That is correct. USB cameras are added as RTSP streams and this prevents the options to change the video parameters like resolution, framerate, codec, etc. Also, the API doesn't help here.
