Fields

Name Value Description
VideoRecording 0

The profile provides hints to the driver to optimize for high-quality video, prioritizing higher resolution and frame rates over power consumption and latency.
HighQualityPhoto 1

The profile provides hints to the driver to optimize for high-quality photo capture.
BalancedVideoAndPhoto 2

The profile provides hints to the driver to allow for photo capture during video capture with balanced quality between both.
VideoConferencing 3
