Chapter 7 Record Setup

7.1 Stream Type

The first page you will see under the Record tab is the Encode page this is where you will make adjustments to the recording streams, recording
resolution and how your recordings are encoded.
In your system there are three streams that you can record to, this is done so that you can store different bit rates for different viewing devices.
There is a "Mainstream" that you can record at your highest resolution and bit rate to view on your monitor, a "Substream" to view via the online
portal and a "Mobile Stream" to view on the mobile app. If you have good internet connection where you would normally use an online portal or
don't intend to use the portal and only use the mobile app when you wish to check alerts then you could select not to record on the "Substream" or
"Mobile Stream", this will save you a lot of storage space.
The streams are set to default as below but you
can adjust these :
Mainstream – defaults to highest resolution
Substream – defaults to a lower resolution
Mobile stream – defaults to the lowest resolution
Each stream can be modified through the Encode
menu which is detailed in the next section of this
manual.
