•
Main Stream
1.
Go to RECORDING CONFIGURATION > RECORD QUALITY > MAIN STREAM and set
the following items:
-
Stream Type
enables/disables audio streaming from the cameras (if the camera does
not have audio capabilities,
Stream Type
will have only
Video
option).
-
Resolution
sets recording resolution.
-
Bitrate Type
saves HDD space when set to
Variable.
Choices:
Variable
and
Constant
.
-
Video Quality
adjusts picture clarity (high setting = four green squares is default).
Consider highest if hard drive space allows. Medium setting is a balance between good
picture and saving HDD space.
-
Frame Rate
sets recording frame rate (8 fps on continuous and 15 on motion by
default). Higher frame rates require more storage, but allows better slow motion
playback.
-
Max Bitrate Mode
chooses between pre-set bitrate values and customized values
(
General
setting is default).
