VI. SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
b. Video
Setting.
This section allows you to specify how video streaming may be compressed and transmitted over
network. This IP Camera supports
dual streaming
, allowing secondary viewing device to receive real-
time IP steaming at substantially low frame rates per second, while at the same time,
does not affect
settings of primary viewing channel.
Streaming 1
Primary Viewer
which usually will consume large bandwidth level (e.g., main
monitoring station like IP Viewer and iNVR surveillance system software)
Streaming 2
Secondary Viewer
which usually
cannot enjoy
large bandwidth level (e.g., mobile
device like 3GPP, 3G Symbian, and Smartphone mobile and PDA phones)
1. Streaming
1.
There are two modes available for settings:
Basic
and
Advanced
modes.
Basic Mode.
Resolution.
This refers to resolution of video and there are four sizes to choose from:
SXGA
1280 x 1024 (High Definition 1.3 Megapixels)
VGA
640 x 480
QVGA
320 x 240
QQVGA
160 x 120
Quality
.
This refers to quality of video streaming, and there are five levels to choose from. The higher the
quality is, the bigger the files size will be.
Video Frame Rate.
This refers to maximum frames can be transmitted per second (fps). Maximum rate
for
1.3Megapixels is at 10fps for both NTSC and PAL. For
rest of resolutions, maximum rate is at
30fps
for NTSC and 25fps for PAL
. In general, the higher the rate is, the better the video quality will be. As
well, when video quality is higher, compression size is bigger and will take more bandwidth, thus
maximum rate can be received in remote site will be less.
Video Format.
IP Camera supports dual codices:
MPEG-4 Simple Profile
and
JPEG
format. Choose one
of them that is best for your network bandwidth and storage capacity.
Video System.
Either
60 Hz
(mainly NTSC) or
50 Hz
(mainly PAL). This will affect maximum
Video
Frame Rate
may be transmitted.
RTSP Path.
When using Smartphone device (3G Symbian, Windows Embedded, or Windows Mobile)
for mobile surveillance, enter RTSP address here. Examples:
