The Network Camera has a buffer that temporarily holds data up to a certain limit. Enter a number to
define the duration of
recording before and after a trigger is activated.

first .
If you enable adaptive recording and enable time-shift cache stream on Camera A, only when an event
is triggered on Camera A will the server record the full frame rate streaming data; otherwise, it will only
request the I frame data during normal monitoring, thus effectively saves bandwidth and storage space.
