Restrictions when operating MPEG-4 images

There are following restrictions when "MPEG-4" is selected for the image compression method on the setup menu (advanced) ("NW camera setup" under "Camera").

1. When displaying live images

qBlack screen may be displayed for the first few seconds (*) when the following operations are performed while displaying live images.

•When MPEG-4 live images are displayed (by switching camera channel, etc.)

•When MPEG-4 image is enlarged (or when enlarged MPEG-4 image is resized to the original size)

wIt may take several seconds (*) for refresh interval of MPEG-4 image when displaying images on a 4-screen. Example: When "3 seconds" is selected for the refresh interval on the camera, MPEG-4 image will be refreshed

in 3 seconds intervals.

eWhen "QUICK" is selected for "REC Type" under "REC Setup" of the setup menu (QUICK), MPEG-4 live image will not be displayed. To display MPEG-4 live image, select "ADVANCED".

2.When displaying images sequentially

When "MPEG-4" is selected for the image compression method of the camera selected for a camera channel on the setup menu (advanced) ("Sequence Setup" under "Camera"), the respective sequence step will be skipped.

3. When playing recorded images

qDisplayed playback time may be fast for several seconds (*) when the following operations are performed while playing recorded images

•When MPEG-4 recorded images are played (by changing camera channel, etc.)

•When MPEG-4 image is enlarged (or when enlarged MPEG-4 image is resized to the original size)

(When operating to zoom in/out a paused MPEG-4 recorded image, image of several seconds later than the displayed image may be enlarged.)

•When the [PLAY] button is clicked again while playing MPEG-4 image

•When the first frame is displayed by clicking the [NEXT IMAGE] button during pausing

wPlayback may be performed in several seconds intervals (*) when the following operations are performed while playing MPEG-4 image.

•Reverse playback

•Fast playback/fast reverse playback

•Reverse frame playback

Example: When "3 seconds" is selected for the refresh interval on the camera, MPEG-4 image will be played in 3 seconds intervals.

eWhen two records are played sequentially, the last few frames of the former record and the first few frames of the next record may be displayed overlapped.

rBlack screen may be displayed when the A-B repeat playback is performed.
