Reducing the screen resolution and display colors

If your system performance slows down when you use SMART Recorder, or the recording quality isn’t as good as you want, you can reduce your computer’s screen resolution and display colors. Smaller screens and fewer colors result in faster performance.

Note 

This procedure may vary depending on your version of Windows operating system and your system preferences.

To reduce the screen resolution and display colors

  1. Open the Windows operating system’s Control Panel.

  2. Double-click Display.

    The Display Properties dialog box appears.

  3. Press the Settings tab.

  4. Select a lower setting in the Colors or Color Quality list.

  5. Drag the Screen Resolution slider to a lower setting.

  6. Press OK.
