objects move in that area. The remainder of the screen where there are no moving
objects (no pixel changes) will still be transmitted in low-quality format.
•
Manual: The Manual mode allows you to configure 3 ROI windows (Region of
Interest, with Foreground quality) on the screen. Areas not included in any ROI
windows will be considered as the non-interested areas. The details in the ROI areas
will be transmitted in a higher-quality video format.
•
Hybrid: The major difference between the "Manual" mode and the "Hybrid" mode is
that:
In the "Hybrid" mode, any objects entering the non-interested area will restore the
video quality of the moving objects and the area around them. The video quality of
the associated non-interested area is immediately restored to normal to cover the
moving objects.
In the "Manual" mode, the non-interested area is always transmitted using a low-
quality format regardless of the activities occurring inside.
•
Quality priority: Drag the slider to adjust the quality contrast between the ROI and
non-interested areas.
The farther the slider is to the right, the higher the image quality of the ROI areas.
On the contrary, the farther the slider to the left, the higher the image quality of the
non-interested area.
In this way, you can set up an ROI window as a privacy mask by covering a protected
area using an ROI window, while the rest of the screen becomes the non-interested
area. You can configure the non-interested area to have a high image quality, or vice
versa.
Bit Rate Control
Constrained Bit Rate
A complex scene generally produces a larger file size, meaning that higher bandwidth
will be needed for data transmission. The bandwidth utilization is configurable to match
a selected level, resulting in mutable video quality performance.
•
Image quality: Select a desired quality ranging from Medium to Excellent. If you
select Customized, you can enter a value to specify the quality.
•
Maximum bit rate: Select a bit rate from the drop-down list. The bit rate ranges from
20 Kbps to a maximum of 80 Mbps. If you select Customized, you can enter a value
to specify the maximum bit rate.
•
Priority: If Frame rate is selected, the camera will try to maintain the frame rate per
second performance, while the image quality will be compromised. If Image quality is
selected, the camera may drop some video frames in order to maintain image
quality.
Fixed Quality
All frames are transmitted with the same quality.
