Encoder Settings
Item
Description
Enable
All encoders are enabled by default. Use this check box to disable/re-enable this
specific encoder.
Encoding mode
H.264 or MJPEG
The method used to compress the video signal.
TC620-PID can stream (M)JPEG over UDP and HTTP.
To enable and configure
UDP
/MJPEG streaming, select MJPEG from the
Encoding mode list and configure settings.
To transport JPEG over
HTTP
and/or use the Live View previews in the web
pages, go to the Live View tab, enable the Live View encoder, and configure its
settings.
Video bit rate mode
Controls variations in bit rates.
Constant quality
Keeps the image quality constant, with varying network
load. See
Constant Quality Mode (CQM) configuration
(below) for Siqura's recommended strategy for controlling
image quality.
Constant bit rate
Keeps network load constant at the cost of varying
image quality. Frames may be skipped.
Note:
The TC620-PID will simultaneously handle dual H.264/MJPEG encoding at full frame
rate, and Live View encoding at 5 frames per second. The total output bandwidth, including
streams controlled by RTSP, and those enabled through SAP, should not exceed 25 Mb/s.
GOP length
Distance in frames between two I-frames.
Frame rate
Range depends on selected front end : 1-7.5 fp (-S models) or 1-30 fps (-F models).
