Figure 29: Video camera settings.
Under the Video settings tab you will find options to:
• Choose your encoding settings
• Edit the frames per second
• Change the resolution of the recorded video
• Choose the video rotation
Your codec options are JPEG and H264 Main Profile. JPEG encoding is optimal for obtaining
best video quality, however it uses more disk space than H264. For longer retention time,
select the H264 option.
Frames per section (FPS) 10 is sufficient for most surveillance scenes, but should be considered
to be increased for faster movement scenes.
The size of the hard drive (HD) can be reduced to improve retention time.
For optimal motion detection, it is best to spend the time to configure correctly and to increase
retention time.
