MPEG-4 Settings

Tools for adjusting the MPEG-4 settings and for controlling the video bit rate.

The MPEG-4 standard provides many different coding tools for various applications in different situations. As most MPEG-4 clients do not support all of these tools, it is usual to instead define and use subsets for different clients or groups of clients. These settings allow you to define the type of viewing client to use.

Adjusting the maximum bit rate and setting it to a variable or constant is a good way of controlling the bandwidth used by the MPEG-4 video stream. For more information on these advanced settings, please see Video Streams, on page 13, and the online help.

AXIS Media Control

The AXIS Media Control (AMC) is installed automatically the first time the camera is accessed from a browser. The AMC control panel can be opened by right-clicking on the video image in the Live View web page. The AMC control panel can be used to configure various video and audio settings, such as push-to-talk. Please see the readme file included in the tool for more information.
