Network Traffic Camera • User Manual

The main stream is usually for recording and live view with good bandwidth, and the sub-stream
can be used for live view when the bandwidth is limited.
You can customize the following parameters for the selected stream type.
Stream Type: Select the stream type to video stream, or video & audio composite stream. The
audio signal will be recorded only when the Video Type is Video Audio.
Bitrate: Select the bitrate of the video.
Frame Rate: Set the frame rate. The frame rate is to describe the frequency at which the video
stream is updated and it is measured by frames per second (fps). A higher frame rate is
advantageous when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains image quality
throughout.
Resolution: Select the resolution of the video output.
SVC: Scalable Video Coding is an extension of the H.264/ MJPEG and H.265 standard. Select
OFF/ON to disable/enable the SVC function. Select Auto and the device will automatically
extract frames from the original video when the network bandwidth is insufficient.
Bitrate Type: Select the bitrate type to constant or variable.
Video Quality: When bitrate type is selected as Variable, 6 levels of video quality are
selectable.
Max. Bitrate: Set the max. bitrate from 32 to 16384 Kbps. The higher value corresponds to the
higher video quality, but the better bandwidth is required.
The maximum limit of the max. bitrate value varies according to different camera platforms. For
certain cameras, the maximum limit is 8192 Kbps or 12288 Kbps.
Profile: When you select H.264 or H.265 as video encoding, you can set the profile. Selectable
profiles vary according to camera models.
I Frame Interval: Set I Frame Interval as default.
Video Encoding: The camera supports multiple video encodings types, such as H.264, H.265,
and MJPEG. Supported encoding type for different stream types may differ. H.265 is a new
encoding technology. Compared with H.264, it reduces the transmission bitrate under the
same resolution, frame rate and image quality.
Selectable video encoding types may vary according to different camera modes.
Upgrade your video player to the latest version if live view or playback does not work
properly due to compatibility.
