MJPEG settings

Sometimes the image size is large due to low light or complex scenery. Adjusting the maximum frame size helps to control the bandwidth and storage used by the MJPEG video stream in these situations. Defining the frame size as Unlimited provides consistently good image quality at the expense of increased bandwidth and storage usage during low light. Limiting the frame size optimizes bandwidth and storage usage, but gives poor image quality. To prevent increased bandwidth and storage usage, the maximum frame size should be set to an optimal value.

Quad Stream settings (AXIS 241Q only)

A Quad stream enables you to monitor all channels at the same time. Instead of having four Internet Explorer windows open, you can have just one window open with the Quad view. You can edit this view with the desired stream time, frame rate, and text overlay.

Image Appearance

Modify the Image Appearance to optimize the video images according to your requirements. You can also rotate and mirror images.

Overlay Settings

Include date, time, and/or text of your choice to be viewed on the images. 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 images.

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.

Test

For a preview of the image and overlay settings before saving, click Test. When you are satisfied with the settings, click Save.
