Figure 89 Recording Settings Details
•
Recording name: Enter a name for the recording setting.
•
Enable this recording: Select this option to enable video recording.
•
With adaptive recording:
Select this option will activate the frame rate control according to alarm trigger.
The frame control means that when there is a triggered alarm, the frame rate will raise
up to the value you’ve configured on the Video quality page. For more information, see
Smart Codec Configuration on page 30 .
If you enable adaptive recording on a camera, only when an event is triggered on camera
will the server record the full frame rate streaming data; otherwise, it will only request the
I frame data during normal monitoring, thus effectively saves bandwidths and storage
space.
Note:
• To enable adaptive recording, make sure you’ve set up the trigger source such
as Motion Detection or Manual Trigger. For more information, see Configuring
Event Settings on page 61 .
• When there is no alarm trigger:
• JPEG mode: record 1 frame per second.
• H.264 mode: record the I frame only.
• When the I frame period is >1s on Video settings page, firmware will force
decreasing the I frame period to 1s when adaptive recording is enabled.
•
Pre-event recording and post-event recording
The camera has a buffer that temporarily holds data for a period. Therefore, when an
event occurs, the camera can retrieve image frames taken several seconds ago.
Enter a number to define the duration of recording before and after a trigger is
activated.
•
Priority: Select the relative importance of this recording (High, Normal, or Low).
