Setting Up Live Video Streaming
In the upper right corner of the screen, immediately above the video window, you can set the
stream type and protocol for live video streaming.
Setting the Stream Type
To set the stream type, in the Stream Type list, select Main Stream, Sub Stream 1, or Sub
Stream 2.
Main Stream Delivers high definition video for real-time monitoring, recording, and storage.
Uses the most bandwidth.
Sub Stream 1 Delivers low/standard definition video, typically for remote monitoring in lower
network bandwidth environments.
Sub Stream 2 Delivers low, standard, or high definition video.
The properties for each stream type are configured on the Setup > Compression Setup >
Video page (see Configuring Streaming Settings on page 19).
Setting the Stream Protocol
To set the stream protocol, in the Protocol list, select TCP, UDP, or Multicast.
TCP Provides most reliable data transmission. Higher latency and bandwidth use
than UDP.
UDP Provides fastest data transmission. Lower latency and bandwidth use than
TCP but allows some data loss (such as droppedframes).
Multicast Provides the most efficient use of bandwidth if large numbers of clients are
viewing the videosimultaneously.
Logging Out of the Web Client
To log out of the web client, in the upper right corner of the screen, click Logout.
