A you check Settings ?
In Video tab, change Base Resolution and Output Resolution.
But for capture sd camcoder use hdvsplit, this software save 1:1 video.

Please follow OBS's STRONG recommendation and do NOT record to MP4. OBS tells you why notI'm trying to capture an sd camcorder tape as mp4 via this software.
Remux afterwards if you must

Hi sorry missed this. Where and what is the logic behind this please? I would interested to learn!I'm trying to capture an sd camcorder tape as mp4 via this software.
It works fine apart from the fact that it outputs as 1920 x 1080
But I'd like something smaller ideally but can see no options
Any ideas please?

hdvsplit - is small program who save directly from firewire (most old camcorders have firewire output, is the digital interface).
Of course you can use other solution like analog grabbers, then indeed you can use OBS.
Remember old camcorders save video with interlace (in short: here we use half the data), but on computer we prefer progressive mode (in short: here we use all the data), before record to file always select on source Video Capture Device Deinterlacing (i suggest Yadif 2x).

RE Why NEVER to record to MP4, as OBS tells you front [and is mentioned all the time in these forums]

1) NEVER RECORD TO MP4 DIRECTLY, FOR ANY REASON. It is not a recording-safe format; if anything goes wrong during the recording, even for a split second, the ENTIRE recording will be corrupted and absolutely not recoverable by any means. Record to MKV, and remux to MP4 after the recording is complete from OBS' File menu, Remux Recordings.
