Application settings

These are the settings of the program on your computer — not to be confused with the device settings, which change the vehicle's behaviour. They open from the main screen (⚙ icon in the top bar).

General

General tab

  • Startup — launch SichRTC on system sign-in; minimize to the system tray when the window is closed.
  • Interface — animations and effects (gradients, glass blur). Turn them off on weaker computers — it significantly reduces GPU load.
  • Language & region — interface language.
  • Map caching — map tiles are saved to disk as you browse, so previously viewed areas work offline. You can set a cache size limit or clear it.

Codecs & capabilities

Codecs & capabilities tab

An informational tab: it shows which codecs your computer can decode in hardware (H.264, H.265, AV1, VP9, etc.). The list is detected automatically from the GPU and drivers — nothing needs to be enabled by hand. This lets session video decode on the graphics card instead of the CPU.

Recording

Recording tab

The folder where session recordings are stored, with a quick link to open it.

Updates

Updates tab

The app version list. A notification on the main screen announces new versions; here you can install the one you need — the app downloads it and restarts itself.

About

About tab

Version, documentation links and supported platforms.
