■ Night mode

In night mode, the Network Camera switches off (remove) the IR cut filter to allow the infrared light to pass through. This improves the sensitivity of the Network Camera in low-light conditions.

You can click Preview to fine-tune the image, or click Restore to recall the original settings without incorporating the changes. When completed with the settings on this page, click Save to take effect and click Close to quit the page.

Video quality settings for stream 1 / stream 2: You can set up two seperate streams for the Network Camera for different viewing devices. For example, set the Network Camera to a smaller frame size and a lower bit rate for remote viewing on mobile phones. Or, set the Network Camera to a larger video size and a higher bit rate for live viewing on web browsers.

■ Mode

The Network Camera offers two choices of video compression standards for real-time viewing: MPEG-4 and MJPEG.

If MPEG-4 is selected, it is streamed in RTSP protocol. There are four dependent parameters provided in MPEG-4 mode for video performance adjustment.

Frame size

Select the video size. Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. The frame sizes are selectable in the following resolutions: 176 x 144, 320 x 240 and 640 x 480.

Maximum frame rate

This limits the maximal refresh frame rate per second. Set the frame rate higher for a smoother video quality.

If the power line frequency is set to 50Hz, the frame rates are selectable at the following rates: 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps and 25fps. If the power line frequency is set to 60Hz, the frame rates are selectable at the following rates: 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps, 25fps and 30fps.

■ Intra frame period

Determine how often to plant an I frame. The shorter the duration, the more likely you will get a better video quality, but at the cost of higher network bandwidth consumption. Select the intra frame period from the following duration: 1/4 second, 1/2 second, 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds and 4 seconds.

■ Video quality

A complex scene generally produces larger file size, meaning that higher bandwidth will be needed for data transmission. Therefore, if Constant bit rate is selected, the bandwidth utilization is fixed at a selected level, resulting in mutable video quality performances. The bit rates are selectable at the following rates: 20Kbps, 30Kbps, 40Kbps, 50Kbps, 64Kbps, 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 768Kbps, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 3Mbps and 4Mbps.

On the other hand, if Fixed quality is selected, all frames are transmitted with the same quality; bandwidth utilization is therefore unpredictable. The video qualities are selectable at the following settings: Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed and Excellent.
