Select which parameter that you would like to
configure, Main Stream or Sub stream.
Record Audio:
for more information.
Resolution:
The resolution is 1080P for Main Stream and Q720p for Sub
stream. By default, the SwannView Link app and Windows software uti-
lises the Sub stream parameter to display an image from your DVR to
your mobile device or computer.
Frame Rate(fps):
The maximum frame rate is 12fps for Main Stream
and 8fps for Sub stream. Change the Sub stream frame rate if you’re
having issues streaming to your mobile device or computer.
Max. BitRate(Kbps):
The maximum bitrate is 4096Kbps for Main Stream
and 256Kbps for Sub stream. Change the Sub stream bitrate if you’re
having issues streaming to your mobile device or computer. By lowering
the bitrate, you reduce the amount of data that is transmitted but you
also lower the video quality if there is a lot of movement. Higher Main
Stream bitrates will also consume the HDD space faster but can give
you higher quality video if there is a lot of movement in the scene.
