AXIS 223M - Troubleshooting 59

 

Poor rendering of MPEG-4 images.

Color depth set incorrectly on clients. Set to 16-bit or 32-bit color.

 

 

If text overlays are blurred, or if there are other rendering problems, you may need to

 

 

enable Advanced Video Rendering. This is done on the MPEG-4 tab in the AMC control

 

 

panel applet.

 

 

Ensure that your graphics card is using the latest device driver. The latest drivers can

 

 

usually be downloaded from the manufacturer's web site.

 

 

If images are degrading, try decreasing the GOV length, see Advanced settings, on page

 

 

20.

 

Color saturation is different in MPEG-4

Modify the settings for your graphics adapter. Please see the adapter's documentation

 

and Motion JPEG.

Problems uploading files

 

 

 

 

 

Limited space.

There is only limited space available for the upload of your own files. Try deleting one

 

 

or more existing files, to free up space.

 

Missing images in uploads.

This can occur when trying to use a larger image buffer than is actually available. Try

 

 

lowering the frame rate or the upload period.

Overlay is not displayed

 

 

 

 

 

Incorrect size or location of overlay.

The overlay may have been positioned incorrectly. Refer to the online help for informa-

 

 

tion on the limitations when using image overlays and privacy masks.

Motion Detection triggers unexpectedly

 

 

 

 

 

Changes in luminance.

Motion detection is based upon changes in luminance in the image. This means that if

 

 

there are sudden changes in the lighting, motion detection may be mistakenly trig-

 

 

gered. Lower the sensitivity setting to avoid problems with luminance.
