• Compression level = 30%

• Video Object Type = Advanced Simple

• GOV length = 8

• GOV structure = IP*

Notes: • Setting the GOV structure to use “I-frames only” will increase the frame rate at the expense of the bit rate.

Bandwidth

As there are many factors that affect bandwidth, it is very difficult to predict the required amounts. The settings that affect bandwidth are:

the image resolution

the image compression

the frame rate

the MPEG-4 object type

the MPEG-4 GOV structure

the maximum exposure time.

There are also factors in the monitored scene that will affect the bandwidth. These are:

the amount of motion

the image’s complexity

the lighting conditions.

For MPEG-4, if there is only limited bandwidth available, and if this is more important than the image quality, using a constant bit rate (CBR) is recommended. Use a variable bit rate (VBR) if the image quality needs to be maintained at a higher level. If supported on the network, consider also using MPEG-4 multicasting, as the bandwidth consumption will be much lower.
