Live Frame Rate

Required average frame rate for live video from the camera. Select
number of frames, then select the time unit interval (second, minute
or hour). The frame rate must be higher than the frame rate
specified under normal mode.

If the camera supports dual stream and dual stream is enabled, the
Live Frame Rate column will be read-only with the value Dual

you prefer such time-based speedup, you should still enable the use of speedup by selecting the
Enable speedup check box.
