Smart stream
:
Smart stream can effectively reduce the video packet size while maintaining
good video quality in the selected areas of your interest. When properly
configured, Smart stream can reduce the stream size to half or even lower.
Unfold the Smart stream configuration menu by selecting the Smart stream
checkbox. You can then configure the following parameters:
Background
Q= Medium or low
Foreground
Q= Good or better
• Foreground quality
: Foreground is the area of your interest where you
want to maintain its video quality. The quality can be: Customized, Medium,
Standard, Good, Detailed, or Excellent. Note that the Customized number
refers to the video compression rate. The larger the number, higher the
compression rate, and thus results in lower quality.
• Background quality
: Background is the area that is less important on the
scene, such as the building in the below drawing. You can configure the
camera to produce a lower-quality display for this area. The background
quality can be: Customized, Medium,
Standard, Good, Detailed, or Excellent.
• Maximum bit rate
: This is an upper threshold on the bit rate per second for
producing and transmitting the Smart stream video. It is configurable from
1Mbps to 40Mbps. You can also manually enter a number (in kbps).
