3) Video Streams The network camera provides several images and video stream formats. Your requirements and the properties of your network will determine the type you use. The Live View page in network camera provides access to H.264, MPEG-4 and Motion JPEG video streams and to the list of available video streams. Other applications and clients can also access these video streams/images directly, without going via the Live View page.
3.5 Network Camera Setup This section describes how to configure the network camera, and is intended for product Administrators, who have unrestricted access to all the Setup tools, and Operators, who have access to the settings for Basic, Live View, Video & Image, Audio, Event, and System Configuration. The network camera is configured by clicking Setup in the top right-hand corner of the Live View page. Click on to access the online help that explains the setup tools.
1) Users User access control is enabled by default. An administrator can set up other users, by giving these user names and passwords. It is also possible to allow anonymous viewer login, which means that anybody may access the Live View page, as described below: The User List displays the authorized users and user groups (levels): User Group Guest Operator Administrator Authority Provides the lowest level of access, which only allows access to the Live View page.
2) Network The network camera supports both IP version 4 and IP version 6. Both versions may be enabled simultaneously, and at least one version must always be enabled. When using IPv4, the IP address for the network camera can be set automatically via DHCP, or a static IP address can be set manually. If IPv6 is enabled, the network camera receives an IP address according to the configuration in the network router. There is also the option of using the Internet Dynamic DNS Service.
3) Video & Image • Stream1 Setting Codec: The codec settings are separated into MPEG-4 and H.264. H.264 is also known as MPEG-4 Part 10. This is the new generation compression standard for digital video. This function offers higher video resolution than Motion JPEG or MPEG-4 at the same bit rate and bandwidth or the same quality video at a lower bit rate. There are 4 pre-programmed stream profiles available for quick set-up. Choose the form of video encoding from the Codec drop-down list: * * H.
* * H.264 BP (Base Profile): Originally intended as the mainstream consumer profile for broadcast and storage applications, the importance of this profile faded when the High profile was developed for those applications. MPEG4 SP (Simple Profile): This profile is mostly aimed for use in situations where low bit rate and low resolution are mandated by other conditions of the applications, like network bandwidth, device size, etc.
• Stream2 Setting Sometimes the image size is large due to low light or complex scenery. Adjusting the frame rate and quality helps to control the bandwidth and storage used by the Motion JPEG video stream in these situations. Limiting the frame rate and quality optimizes bandwidth and storage usage, but may give poor image quality. To prevent increased bandwidth and storage usage, the Resolution, Frame rate, and Quality should be set to an optimal value.
