Chapter 3 Configuring and Managing the IP Camera

Audio/Video Windows

Table 3-9	Video Window Options (continued)
Option		Description
Video Quality Control		Choose an option for the video quality of the primary video stream from the
		IP camera:
		• Constant Bit Rate—Specifies that the video stream is output at or close
		to the constant bit rate that you choose. The default value is 4 Mbps. A
		higher bit rate provides better video quality but consumes more
		bandwidth.
		• Fixed Quality—Specifies that video is output at a fixed quality, which
		ranges from Very High to Very Low. The bit rate may vary to maintain
		this quality. The default fixed quality is Normal. A higher fixed quality
		provides better video quality but consumes more bandwidth.
		You can use these options to help manage bandwidth use in your network.
		For example, if the IP camera is focused on an area with little movement,
		such as an emergency exit, you can configure it with a low fixed quality.
Max. Frame Rate		Choose the desired maximum frame rate per second for the primary video
		stream from the IP camera.
		The default values are 30 for NTSC and 25 for PAL.
		A higher maximum frame rate provides better video quality but consumes
		more bandwidth
MPEG-4 Settings 2

Note These MPEG-4 Settings 2 options appear if you choose the Dual MPEG-4 Streams from the Streaming Mode drop-down list.

Resolution	Choose the resolution of the secondary video stream.
Video Quality Control	Choose an option for video quality for the secondary video stream from the
	IP camera:
	• Constant Bit Rate—Specifies that the video stream is output at or close
	to the constant bit rate that you choose. The default value is 64 Kbps. A
	higher bit rate provides better video quality but consumes more
	bandwidth.
	• Fixed Quality—Specifies that video is output at a fixed quality, which
	ranges from Very High to Very Low. The bit rate may vary to maintain
	this quality. The default fixed quality is Normal. A higher fixed quality
	provides better video quality but consumes more bandwidth.
Max. Frame Rate	Choose the desired maximum frame rate per second for the secondary video
	stream from the IP camera.
	The default values are 25 for NTSC or 20 for PAL.
	A higher maximum frame rate provides better video quality but consumes
	more bandwidth
