8.2 Recording

The "recording" gives users the overall control of how and when a recording is performed and
the quality of different types of recordings performed on each channels. It can help the
recorder to operate with sufficient system resource by performing recording only when it's
necessary with adjustable recording frame rate.
You can define the following in "General Settings":
• Enable cycle recording or not
• Recording frame rate
• Define to always keep a number of days of previously recorded data
• Enable/disable different recording types on different cameras
• Enable/disable audio recording
Users can also set to keep a previous number of days of recording data by enabling the option
below. This is quite often used in application such as banking which certain countries requires
to always keeping a minimum previous number of days of recording data.
There are two types of fps settings here, one is the fps that NVR sets back to the camera, and
this is the fps NVR will be receiving from the camera. The other is recording fps, which will be
limited by the live fps. (ex. if the live fps is set to 10, choosing "Full" in the recording fps
meaning it will only record at 10fps maximum.
For MPEG/H.264, only i frame or full (i+p frame) can be selected for recording fps.
You also can disable audio recording (record video only) of particular channels.
