Panasonic WV-NS202A MPEG-4 setup, MPEG-4 transmission, Max bit rate per 1 client

■MPEG-4 setup

Click the [JPEG/MPEG-4] tab on the "Camera setup" page. (☞ pages 20 and 21: How to display/operate the setup menu)

Configure the settings relating to MPEG-4 image such as "Max bit rate (per 1 client)", "Image capture size", "Image quality", etc. in this section. Refer to page 35 for further information about the settings relating to JPEG images. Refer to page 89 for how to configure settings to transmit MPEG-4 images via the Internet.

[MPEG-4 transmission]

Select "ON" or "OFF" to determine whether or not to transmit MPEG-4 images.

ON: Transmits MPEG-4 images.

OFF: Does not transmit MPEG-4 images.

Default: ON

Note:

When "ON" is selected for "MPEG-4" transmission, displaying of MPEG-4 images or JPEG images will be available. However, the refresh interval (JPEG) may be longer than the set value when displaying JPEG images.

[Max bit rate (per 1 client)*]

Select a MPEG-4 bit rate per a client from the following. 64 kbps/128 kbps */256 kbps */512 kbps */1024 kbps */ 1536 kbps */2048 kbps */3072 kbps */4096 kbps * Default: 2048 kbps*

Note:

The MPEG-4 bit rate is synchronized with "Total bit rate" on the [Network] tab of "Network setup" page (☞ page 68). For this reason, the bit rate may be lower than the value when any value with an asterisk

(*) on the right is selected.

[Image capture size]

Select "QVGA" or "VGA" for the image capture size of MPEG-4 images.

Default: VGA

[Image quality]

Select the image quality of MPEG-4 images from the following.

Fine/Normal/Low

Default: Normal

[Refresh interval (MPEG-4)]

Select an interval (I-frame interval; 1 - 5 seconds) to refresh the displayed MPEG-4 images.

If using under a network environment with frequent error occurrences, shorten the refresh interval for MPEG-4 to diminish image distortions. However, the refresh interval may be longer than the set value.

Default: 3 sec

[Transmission type]

Select a MPEG-4 transmission type from the following. Unicast port (AUTO): Up to 8 users can access a sin- gle camera concurrently. "Unicast port1 (Image)"

and "Unicast port2 (Audio)" will automatically be selected when transmitting images and audio from the camera.

When it is unnecessary to fix the port number for MPEG-4 image transmission such as when using in a particular LAN environment, it is recommended to select "Unicast port (AUTO)".

Unicast port (MANUAL): Up to 8 users can access a single camera concurrently. It is necessary to select "Unicast port1 (Image)" and "Unicast port2 (Audio)" manually to transmit images and audio from the camera.

It is possible to fix the port number of the router used for MPEG-4 image transmission via the Internet by setting "Unicast port (MANUAL)". (☞ page 89) Refer to the operating instructions of the router in use.
