Windows 10: Why is my phone capped at 720p when i Use it as webcam through phonelink? The Phone is 1080p

Why is my phone capped at 720p when i Use it as webcam through phonelink? The Phone is 1080pI bought a cheap Redmi12 to use as webcam but the maximum resolution in MS Camera or OBS or whatever is 720pThe phone is 1080p.Also and this goes for my other phone as well, this all needs to work without having to press ANYTHING on the phonew itself as it is on either a tripod or a camera mount. It all needs to work from the PC without touching the phone at all.-JB

I recently updated to windows 10, 720p and 1080p videos are lagging in my phone

Hi,



Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand your concern. Let me help you to fix the issue.



Based on your information, I have gone through the phone specification. This phone has Quad-core 1.2GHz which is low to play the 720p video and 1080p. However, to identify the issue please answer the below ask question.

• 
  Are you facing this issue using any specific video player?
  
• 
  As you have upgraded to Windows 10 now, do you face the same issue in previous version Windows 8?
  
• Try using different video player and let us know the status.

Awaiting your response for further assistance.

 

I recently updated to windows 10, 720p and 1080p videos are lagging in my phone

Hello.

I recently updated to windows 10 via Upgrade advisor in my LUMIA 540.

every thing running fine except one thing 720p and 1080p videos are lagging in my phone.

I have completely formatted my phone still i am having this issue.

What should i do??

 

720P still outputs 1080P

Tried that in Extended Desktop mode. I set both display 1 and display to to 720. But the video tester confirmed the actual HDMI output was still 1080p.

I tried in Duplicate (mirror) mode ( 1|2) and even though the screen said 720p the actual output was 1080p.

Gave up as show time was approaching and used the Neo 1 tester as a format conversion device.

I realize the first matrix connected to this laptop was capable of 1080, but some of the other upstream equipment is not. When a user "requests" 720p the graphics system needs to respect that regardless of what HDMI thinks might be best.
