5-3 Encoding Page

This page is for setting JPEG encoding parameters.

A BC D

This page can be used upon access via AadminB or AoperatorB. Press the AOKB button to enable the new settings upon changing. If the AOKB button is pressed upon entering an invalid value, a warning message will appear and entry will be denied. Press the ACancelB button to restore the invalid entry to the current value.

A

Encode Number

 

Up to 8 types of encoding are possible using different combinations of the input channel and

 

 

 

frame size. Turn on the check box for items to be used. Deselect unnecessary items to enable

 

 

 

effective allocation of the processing capacity of VN-E4.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

B

Quality

 

For specifying the rate control mode and target file size.

 

 

 

 

 

When A1-high-Bto A7-high-Bis selected, the quantization table of JPEG encoding is fixed and the

 

 

 

file size will increase/decrease according to the input signals. Default value of each option is

 

 

 

displayed in the target file size. Be careful when recording JPEG data to a recorder with limited

 

 

 

recording capacity, as file sizes may increase or decrease, so the maximum recording time may

 

 

 

be changed (When AAverage File SizeB or AConstant File SizeB is selected, input of target file size

 

 

 

will be enabled.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

WhenAAverage File SizeB is selected, encoding is performed such that average file size of

 

 

 

multiple JPEG images becomes the target file size.

 

 

 

 

 

WhenAConstant File SizeB is selected, encoding is performed such that each JPEG file size

 

 

 

becomes the target file size. When AConstant File SizeB is selected, the processing load of

 

 

 

VN-E4is heavy and the maximum frame rate becomes a quarter of the maximum frame rate in

 

 

 

other rate control modes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

C

Frame Rate

 

For specifying the number of frames to encode per second. VN-E4is limited in its processing

 

 

 

capacity and the specified frame rate may not be realized depending on the settings of

 

 

 

AEncode NumberB and AQualityB.

 

 

 

 

 

In particular, when AConstant File SizeB is selected or when the target file size is set to a large

 

 

 

value, the upper limit of AFrame RateB will be lowered.

 

 

 

 

 

An example of settings for which 120 fps (VN-E4U)or 100 fps (VN-E4E)can be realized is as

 

 

 

follows.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Encoding

: 4 VGA set to ON

 

 

 

 

 

Quality

: AAverage File SizeB selected and set to A24KBB

 

 

 

Frame Rate

: A30B(VN-E4U),A25B(VN-E4E)

 

 

 

 

 

The unit will function as follows if the frame rate is altered when data distribution is in progress.

D

Interpolate

 

When AInterpolateB is off, video frame with 480 horizontal lines is encoded to JPEG. When

 

 

 

AInterpolateB is on, video field with 240 horizontal lines is interpoleted to 480 horizontal lines, and

 

 

 

encoded to JPEG. To get high resolution, AOffB is recommended. To avoid jaggy image caused

 

 

 

by fast moving objects, AOnB is recommended.
