The video streaming function provides the streaming of audio and video data to the net- work without requesting the data actively with a RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) or DaVid Protocol capable client (e.g. Dallmeier recorder or PView). Note that the format of the RTP payload to be transported must correspond with the encod- ing standard.
The data packets are transferred via point-to-point connection to exact one receiver (client) in the network including the specified destination IP address and port number. The receiver only receives the data packets if the appropriate application service is avail- able with the specified port number. www.dallmeier.com...
IP packets from breaking through the limits of the LAN and being sent to the WAN (TTL = 1). According to requirements a TTL value from 1 – 255 can be entered. When entering 0 (zero), the default values are used (TTL = 1 for multicast, TTL = 64 for unicast). www.dallmeier.com...

Note that the camera can be recorded in the “Motion” recording mode (image comparison) by Dallmeier recorders of the DMS and VNB series (as of version 7.1.1). For this, the Encoder 1, which has to be set to H.264 encoding, is used. Encoder 2 and 3 are automatically disabled.
Page 51
The allowed bit rate variations can be limited by the according percentage value. Example: With a set bit rate of 4 Mbps and a bit rate mode of “variable 50 %”, the bit rate can vary from 6 to 2 Mbps. www.dallmeier.com...
3 is disabled by default. encoder 3 only supports the encoding standard H.264. Note that the encoder 3 option is dependent on the set frame rate and resolution of en- coder 2. Select the encoder 3 tab. www.dallmeier.com...
The higher the audio bit rate, the better the audio quality. A higher bit rate, however, requires more hard disk space than a lower bit rate. Select the Audio tab. Fig. 10-7 Select the Audiobitrate. Confirm with oK. www.dallmeier.com...
Select the relevant data by activating the related checkbox. Select the Duration. Confirm with oK. The external transferred data is embedded in the current image (frame) present at the mo- ment when the data is received and keeps embedded for the selected Duration (frames). www.dallmeier.com...
