6.3.8Normal and Dual Streaming

For different networks with different bandwidths, two streaming options are provided – normal and dual streaming. The preset is normal streaming.

Users who are using high-speed networks, normal streaming will be a recommended choice. Depending on the HDD capacity and network usage, set the remote monitoring software to occupy high or low bandwidths.

For networks with limited bandwidth, dual streaming will be a better choice. It enables coexistence of high quality streaming at local DVR site and lower quality streaming but faster transmission for the remote monitoring site. To select dual streaming, click on the bandwidth icon and the icon will change color. Then users can furthermore choose different bit rates to adjust for the best displaying quality.

NOTE: for S models, dual streaming function is available only for H.264 and MJPEG recording mode. for all other models, there is no limitation.
