The following tips allow you to archive more video by lowering the resolution of recorded
video.
Do You Need to Establish an Individual's Presence or a Person's Identity?
• Presence may be sufficient. For tasks that only involve establishing if someone has
entered the building, or counting cars in a parking lot, and so on, low resolution may
be good enough to establish presence, helping to guarantee a longer video archive.
Need to know how many cars? Objects can be effectively counted at low resolution
and make using higher resolutions unnecessary.
• To identify unknown vehicles, a person's facial traits and so on, better camera
positions and higher-resolution may be needed. Identification may not be as crucial
when subjects are known, such as employees, uniformed personnel, and so on.
• You have the option of adjusting Microsoft Windows Display Properties for your PC
monitor. See Monitor Settings to Customize Windows for a PC
