Configuring the Camera
Basler IP Camera 43
3.7.2 RTSP Tab
Enabled
- Check the Enabled box to enable the Real Time Streaming
Protocol (RTSP). RTSP is a control protocol that allows the camera
to negotiate which transport protocol to use for the video streams.
Typically, RTSP streaming should be enabled.
RTSP Port
- Sets the port that will be used by RTSP. The default port
is 554.
Multicast
- Check the Multicast box to enable multicast streaming.
Multicasting is a bandwidth conserving technology. It reduces
bandwidth by allowing the camera to deliver a single video stream to
multiple recipients on the network. Note that multicasting will only
work for streams where the
Encoder Type parameter (see
Section 3.4.2 on page 26 ) is set to MPEG4 or to H264.
Multicast On-Demand
- Check the Multicast On-Demand box to make the multicast stream an
"on-demand" stream. When multicast streaming on-demand is enabled, the camera will only deliver
a multicast video stream when one or more devices are requesting the multicast stream. This is an
additional bandwidth reducing mechanism.
Multicast IP
- If multicast streaming is enabled, sets the IP address for multicast streaming. The
Multicast IP address must be in the range from 224.0.1.0 to 239.255.255.255.
Multicast Port
- If multicast streaming is enabled, sets the port for multicast streaming.
Multicast TTL
- If multicast streaming is enabled, sets the multicast Time-To-Live (TTL). The
multicast Time-To-Live (TTL) value specifies the number of routers (hops) that multicast traffic is
permitted to pass through before expiring on the network.
