► Video quality and fixed quality refers to the
compression rate
, so a lower value will produce higher
quality.
► Converting high-quality video may significantly increase the CPU loading, and you may encounter
streaming disconnection or video loss while capturing a complicated scene. In the event of
occurance, we suggest you customize a lower video resolution or reduce the frame rate to obtain
smooth video.
If
JPEG
mode is selected, the Network Camera sends consecutive JPEG images to the client, producing
a moving effect similar to a filmstrip. Every single JPEG image transmitted guarantees the same
image quality, which in turn comes at the expense of variable bandwidth usage. Because the media
contents are a combination of JPEG images, no audio data is transmitted to the client. There are three
parameters provided in MJPEG mode to control the video performance:
■ Frame size
You can set up different video resolution for different viewing devices. For example, set a smaller
frame size and lower bit rate for remote viewing on mobile phones and a larger video size and a higher
bit rate for live viewing on web browsers. Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth.
■ Maximum frame rate
This limits the maximum refresh frame rate per second. Set the frame rate higher for smoother video
quality. Applied frame rate changes with configured FOV automatically.
For example, if the power line frequency is set to 50Hz at 1080P full HD, the frame rates are selectable
at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 12fps, 15fps, 20fps, and 25fps. If the power line frequency is
set to 60Hz, the frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 12fps, 15fps, 20fps,
25fps, and 30fps. You can also select
Customize
and manually enter a value. The frame rate will
decrease if you select a higher resolution.
■ Video quality
The video quality can be adjusted to the following settings: Acceptable, Satisfactory, Good, Very Good,
and Excellent. You can also select Customize and manually enter a value.
