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. Note that higher frame rate requires higher bandwidth and larger
storage space.
4.1.7 Video Encoding
It stands for the compression standard the device adopts for video encoding.
Note
Available compression standards vary according to device models.
H.264
H.264, also known as MPEG-4 Part 10, Advanced Video Coding, is a compression standard.
Without compressing image quality, it increases compression ratio and reduces the size of video
file than MJPEG or MPEG-4 Part 2.
H.264+
H.264+ is an improved compression coding technology based on H.264. By enabling H.264+, you
can estimate the HDD consumption by its maximum average bitrate. Compared to H.264, H.264+
reduces storage by up to 50% with the same maximum bitrate in most scenes.
When H.264+ is enabled, Max. Average Bitrate is configurable. The device gives a recommended
max. average bitrate by default. You can adjust the parameter to a higher value if the video quality
is less satisfactory. Max. average bitrate should not be higher than max. bitrate.
Note
When H.264+ is enabled, Video Quality, I Frame Interval, Profile and SVC are not configurable.
H.265
H.265, also known as High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) and MPEG-H Part 2, is a compression
standard. In comparison to H.264, it offers better video compression at the same resolution, frame
rate and image quality.
H.265+
H.265+ is an improved compression coding technology based on H.265. By enabling H.265+, you
can estimate the HDD consumption by its maximum average bitrate. Compared to H.265, H.265+
reduces storage by up to 50% with the same maximum bitrate in most scenes.
When H.265+ is enabled, Max. Average Bitrate is configurable. The device gives a recommended
max. average bitrate by default. You can adjust the parameter to a higher value if the video quality
