Record: Parameters - Record
Camera:
Select a camera that you would like to edit.
Camera Resolution:
Displays the camera’s resolution.
Encoding Parameters:
You can change settings for both Continuous and
Event recording (we recommend to have the same settings for both).
Stream Type:
By default “Video” is selected. Select “Video & Audio” if
you have an audio source connected to your DVR’s audio input.
Resolution:
The default recording resolution is 1280 x 720 (720P).
Frame Rate:
The number of frames per second (fps) that your DVR will
record. The default is 15fps but can be changed to Full Frame when se-
lecting a lower recording resolution.
Video Quality:
The amount of data your DVR will use to record video.
Lowering the quality reduces the file size of each video saved.
Pre-record:
This reduces the chance of an event not being recorded. We
recommend changing this to 10 seconds (10s).
Post-record:
Same as above but your DVR will continue recording after
an event has occurred. 30 seconds (30s) is the recommended length.
Expired Time (day):
Determines how long the video footage will remain
on the hard drive without it being overwritten.
Record Audio:
Click the checkbox to record audio when selecting “Video
& Audio” for the stream type.
Video Stream:
This option allows you to choose which stream your DVR
will record. We recommend leaving this on Mainstream as it will record
at the highest resolution available.

tion allows you to

ically selected to fit in
