Overlay Settings

Use these settings to include an image as an overlay, and/or the date and time, along with text of your own.

Text overlays are all included on one line at the top or bottom of the video image. Image overlays can be placed anywhere in the video image.

To upload an overlay image, see below.

Example: If there is information in a monitored area that you do not wish to disclose, you can mask it out by placing an overlay image on top. Setting the overlay image anywhere in the video image using coordinates allows preci- sion detail masking.

Video Stream

The Maximum video stream time can be set as Unlimited, or a maximum stream time per session in seconds, minutes or hours can be defined. When the set time has expired, a new stream 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.

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