Field Name
Description
TV Standard
Default is NTSC
Line Frequency
Select between 50Hz or 60Hz to match with the frequency of
artificial light source of a given country.
Stream Mode
*
1
Select one of the streaming modes this device supports.
VGA Aspect Ratio
It is used to define the aspect ratio of VGA stream
– it can be either
4:3 ratio (640x480) or 16:9 ratio (640x360). When “Auto Detected”
is chosen, the VGA stream will follow the ratio of the higher
resolution stream, to ensure the identical view of stream 1 and
stream 2.
Mounting Type
*
2
Choose the Mounting Type according to how the camera is
mounted to display the appropriate view. There are two options:
Ceiling or Wall.
Default Fisheye
Mode
*
2
Select a desired fisheye mode for this channel, this setting will also
be applied to the camera’s firmware setting.
Video Encoder
Select one of the codecs this device supports.
Maximum Bitrate
This puts a hard cap on the maximum bit rate allowed in any given
second of streaming. Assigning a limited bit rate may cause a few
dropped frames when the stream data overflows the allowed bit
rate.
Bitrate
*
3
When Maximum Bitrate is chosen as
“Unlimited”, the user can
define the AVERAGE bit rate. For example, if the Bitrate is chosen
2M, then occasionally, the actual bit rate may go below or beyond
2M, but in the long run, the average bit rate will be very close to
2M. This mode allows the most accurate storage estimations,
however, while planning the bandwidth, please consider the
occasional peaks of bit rate.
Video Quality
*
4
Select your desired video quality of the image. The user can define
the quality with the numeric scale from 1 to 100. The default
MJPEG quality is 60. The higher is the quality level, the more bit
rate the camera will use to achieve the target quality.
