These are tools to control the camera network streams, adjust network stream video quality settings, and
control the video bit rate.
o
Codec:
H.264 and MJPEG are supported. Both streams cannot be set to MJPEG. Note that NONE is also a
selection for the 2
nd
Stream.
H.264
is a video compression standard that makes good use of bandwidth and which can
provide high-quality video streams at less than 1 Mbit/s. The H.264 standard provides scope for
a large range of different coding tools for use by various applications in different situations, and
the IP Camera provides certain subsets of these tools. Using H.264, it is also possible to control
the bit rate, which in turn allows the amount of bandwidth usage to be controlled.
