Record Quality
The Record Quality parameter allows the video compression bit rate to be
adjusted. Digital video is compressed by taking out data that remains constant
from each frame, and only storing data that actually changes. This allows
videos with still backgrounds to be much smaller than they would be if the
background had to be present in every single frame.
The
bit rate
is the number of bits that can be used in one second of video. The
higher the
record quality
, the higher the bit rate and the size of the event files.
The default setting is “
high”
for a good mix between video qualities and upload
time, but can be lowered or raised to adjust quality and storage space.
