AXIS 243Q Blade - Video & Image 18

All configuration of images and overlays will affect the performance of the video server, depending on usage and the available bandwidth.

High resolution generates larger files

Selecting the Aspect ratio correction option improves the appearance of images from analog video sources, that are displayed on computer monitors.

When using MPEG-4 as video format, any aspect ratio correction for the image is applied by the viewing client (the correct aspect ratio is contained in the MPEG-4 stream).

Resolution - 4CIF de-interlacing- Showing interlaced video on a computer monitor may produce distortion when there is movement in the image. Selecting this option reduces the distortion.

Lower compression improves image quality, but generates larger files

Rotating the image 90 or 270 degrees will lower the maximum frame rate

Black & White uses less bandwidth than Color

Text overlay settings

Include date, time and/or text of your choice to be viewed on the image. The color of the text may be set to white or black, while background color may be set to white, black, transparent or semitransparent. The position of the text is set either to the top or the bottom of the image.

Video stream

The Maximum video stream time can be set as Unlimited, or set a maximum stream time per session in seconds, minutes or hours. When the set time has expired, a new stream on the Live View page can be started by refreshing the page in the web browser. Note that the maximum video stream time does not apply to clients connecting via multicast.

To avoid bandwidth problems on the network, the frame rate allowed to each viewer can also be limited. Select either Unlimited or define a maximum frame rate per viewer.
