Section 3 - Configuration
Clicking the Client Settings button
will bring you to the following screen which allows you to configure the basic protocol options for your
camera.
H.264 Media Options
Video and Audio can be viewed at the same time or separately.
H.264 Protocol Options
For additional information about streaming options please see page 41.
UDP Unicast:
Stream to a single computer.
UDP Multicast:
Stream to multiple computers using multicast streaming.
TCP:
Provides higher quality video streaming than UDP and provides error correction.
However, transmission speed will be reduced.
HTTP:
Offers the highest image and video quality. However, packet loss will diminish image quality when bandwidth becomes restricted. If the
network is protected by a firewall and it opens only the HTTP port (80), the HTTP protocol must be selected. In this mode, audio is disabled and
only video can be viewed. UDP connections will not be available to remote users if all four ports have not been forwarded (as shown on page 46).
Only the HTTP port must be forwarded for remote users to make an HTTP connection (video only).
Saving Options
Folder:
Select the folder where you would like the recording to be saved on your desktop computer.
File name prefix:
Enter a file name prefix for the files.
Add date and time suffix to file name:
Select this checkbox if you would like the date and time to be added to the end of each file name.
Local Streaming Buffer Time
Enter the buffer time in milliseconds. The buffer will cause a slight delay between live activity and the video of the live stream but may increase
the quality of video.
