I could've sworn I could quickly tap the small dot that shows the zoom (ie. 1X) and change it to another zoom level like 3x or 10x while recording a video live.

I can no longer see that option, I only see the 4 zoom levels before recording the video, and then when I start recording, tapping that icon does nothing. I can pinch to zoom with my fingers but that is not convenient.

I am on Android 14/OneUI 6 and using the Camera Assistant. Is there a setting that I might have accidentally activated that causes this?

Got my answer from another forum, the issue was my video was set to 4K 60FPS

You can only switch lenses whilst recording in modes listed below;

4K30FPS
1080P 60-30 FPS.

For 4K60FPS and above you would have to resort to digital zoom, which isnt bad at all up until 4x from what I've tested so far.
