Live
Auto adaptive stream
: Default is enabled. The Auto adaptive stream automatically
polls a video stream of a smaller resolution in order to reduce the streaming efforts.
For example, when a view cell is placed in a 3x3 layout, it may not be necessary to
stream the video in its full resolution. In a full view, the system displays a video in its full
resolution. Due to the size of view cells on your monitor, when in a multi-cell layout, the
system automatically polls the camera for a smaller resolution stream.
The Auto adaptive stream feature can be disabled if you prefer consistent display
resolution.
Customized
: The Customized option allows you to manually select High, Medium, or Low
resolution streams from the pre-configured video streams of a camera. Note that for
cameras that come with higher resolutions, such as 8MP, the NVR still has its limitation
on the maximum resolution. Select a camera from the list and then use the pull-down
menu to select a video stream of different resolution. When done, click the Apply button.
Stream management
The NVR receives two video streams from each connected camera: Live view and
Recording. Due to the size of the individual view cells on a monitor, the Live view stream
does not necessarily need to be at its maximum resolution. Therefore, the Live view can be
using a smaller resolution stream.
