reduce the stream size to half or even lower.
Unfold the Smart codec configuration menu by selecting the Smart codec checkbox. You

maintain its video quality. The quality can be: Low, Acceptable, Satisfactory, Good, Very
Good, or Excellent.

such as the building in the below drawing. You can configure the camera to produce

Satisfactory, Good, Very Good, or Excellent.
• Maximum bit rate
