Media
Select “Video”.
• Video format
Supports 50 HZ (PAL) and 60 HZ (NTSC), and Dial
priority.
• Encode Protocol
Supports MJPEG, H.264 and H.265.
• Encode Level
Supports baseline, main profile, and high profile.
• Resolution
Main bit rate supports 1920x1080, 1280x720 and
1024x576.
Minor bit rate supports 720x480, 720x576 and
320x240.
The higher the resolution, the clearer the image, but
this uses more network bandwidth.
• Bit Rate
You can assign bit rate/stream. Generally, the higher
the bit rate, the clearer the image. The bit allocation
must combine with network bandwidth. If the network
bandwidth is too low and the allocated bit rate is too
high, the video quality suffers.
• Frame rate
You can specify the frame rate. Generally speaking,
the higher the frame rate, the smoother the image;
the lower the frame rate, the choppier the image.
• I key frame interval
Set the interval between 2 and 150. The larger the interval, smaller the response from the viewing window.
• Bit Rate control
Options:
Constant bit rate: video coder codes per preset speed
Variable bit rate: video coder adjusts the speed to gain the best image quality
