Using the Main Menu 13
4. Configure the following settings. Settings for the Main Stream are in the left column.
Settings for the Sub Stream are in the right column.
NOTE
For select cameras, you can configure settings for display stream on the right column.
• Compression : Select the video compression type that will be used.
• Resolution : Select the resolution that you want to use to record the selected chan-
nel. Higher resolutions create a more detailed image, but take up more hard drive
space to record and require more bandwidth to stream to connected computers or
mobile devices.
NOTE
Available resolutions for the Main Stream and Sub Stream depend on the model of camera that is
connected to the system.
• Frame Rate (FPS) : Select the frame rate in Frames Per Second (FPS) that each
stream will record at. A higher frame rate provides a smoother picture, but requires
more storage and bandwidth.
• Bit Rate Type : Select CBR (Constant Bit Rate) or VBR (Variable Bit Rate) to deter-
mine the bit rate type. If you select VBR, you can set the video quality setting be-
tween 1 and 6. If you select VBR, select the
Quality from 1 (lowest) to 6 (highest).
• Bit Rate (Kbps) : Select the bit rate for each recording stream. A higher bit rate re-
sults in a better image, but increases the amount of hard drive space or bandwidth
required.
NOTE
Only select cameras support the Audio/Video setting. See 13.1.7 Configuring Audio Recording ,
page 56 for details.
