Intelligent Interval Selection

For motion-triggered cameras, use shorter intervals (0.5-1 second) to ensure you capture all movement. For continuous recording, 5-10 second intervals work well for general review.

Evidence Quality Settings

Always use maximum quality for evidence that may be used in legal proceedings. The extra file size is worth the clarity for identification purposes.
