This section defines how the DVM will record audio and video events to the storage media.
Recording Details
Your DVM-800 includes an external 32GB SD card which is normally used as the primary memory
storage. Use the following options in this section to configure your record settings.
Record Quality
The Record Quality parameter allows the video compression bit rate to be adjusted. Digital video
is compressed by taking out data that remains constant from each frame, and only storing data
that actually changes. This allows the file size of videos with still backgrounds to be much smaller
than they would be if the background had to be present in every single frame. The bit rate is the
amount of bits that can be used in one second of video.
The higher the record quality, the higher the bit rate and the size of the event files. The default
setting is “very high” for maximum video quality, but can be lowered to “standard” or “high” to
increase the compression rate and reduce the required storage space (see figure 3-9).
Settings: Standard (512Kbps), High (1Mbps), and Very High (2Mbps) [default]
