bandwidth usage to be controlled. CBR (Constant Bit Rate) is used to achieve a specific
bit rate by varying the quality of the H.264 stream. While using VBR (Variable Bit Rate),
the quality of the video stream is kept as constant as possible, at the cost of a varying bit
rate.
Motion JPEG
This format uses standard JPEG still images in the video stream. These images then are
displayed and updated at a rate sufficient to create a stream that shows constantly
updated motion.
The Motion JPEG stream uses considerable amounts of bandwidth, but also provides
excellent image quality and access to every individual image contained in the stream.
Multiple clients accessing Motion JPEG streams could use different image settings.

Bit-rate Control (CBR or VBR)
When using H.264 compression, if there is only limited bandwidth available, a constant bit
rate (CBR) is recommended, although this may compromise image quality. Use a variable
bit rate (VBR) for the best possibly image quality.
Average Bit-rate (512Kbps ~ 10Mbps)
Recommended bit rate for D1 or VGA: 800Kbps ~ 1Mbps
Recommended bit rate for 1.3M (720p: 3Mbps ~ 4Mbps
Recommended bit rate for 2.0M (1080p): 6Mbps ~ 8Mbps
Boost Quality
The Boost feature is used in conjunction with Video Motion Detection (VMD). When this
feature is turned ON, the Boost FPS can be set to a different value than the Frame Rate set
for the camera in the field above. When motion is detected, the camera will boost the fps
from the regular level set for the camera to this boosted level for the duration of the motion.
Boost Quality can be set ON or OFF. (Note that multicasting may not be available with the
firmware you received; check the Vicon website for updated firmware.)
