Live View Config

Layout

The settings on this page allow you to decide the layout of the Live View page. You can include action buttons, decide the default video format, and the default viewer among other things.

Default Video Format

Select the default video format to use on the Live View page. Checking the Show video format selection box option displays a drop-down list on the Live View page allowing you to temporarily change the format.

When using MPEG-4 as the video format, the default viewer is AXIS Media Control with Internet Explorer.

Note: It is also possible to view Motion JPEG when MPEG-4 is chosen as default and vice versa.

Default Viewer

From the drop-down lists, select the default method for viewing video images for your browser. The camera will attempt to show the video images in the selected video format and viewer. If this is not possible, the camera will override the settings and select the best available combination.
