  • Page 79 VIVOTEK ■ AE Speed Adjustment: This function applies when you need to monitor fast changing lighting conditions. For example, the camera may need to monitor a highway lane or entrance of a parking area at night where cars passing by with their lights on can bring fast changes in light levels. The same applies if the camera is installed on a vehicle, and when it needs to adapt to fast changes of light when entering and leaving a tunnel.

  • Page 86 VIVOTEK Click the stream item to display the detailed information. The maximum frame size will follow your settings in the above Viewing Window sections. This Network Camera offers real-time H.265, H.264, and MJPEG compression standards (Triple H.265 or H.264 Codec) for real-time viewing. If the mode is selected, the video is streamed via RTSP protocol.
  • Page 87 VIVOTEK ■ Intra frame period Determine how often for firmware to plant an I frame. The shorter the duration, the more likely you will get better video quality, but at the cost of higher network bandwidth consumption. Select the intra frame period from the following durations: 1/4 second, 1/2 second, 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, and 4 seconds.
  • Page 88 VIVOTEK With the H.265 codec in an optimal scenario and when Dynamic Intra frame is combined with the Smart Stream function, an 80% of bandwidth saving can be achieved compared with using H.264 without enabling these bandwidth-saving features. ■ Smart FPS In a static scene, the algorithm puts old frames in queue when no motions occur in scene.
  • Page 89 VIVOTEK Smart codec effectively reduces the quality of the whole or the non-interested areas ■ on a screen and therefore reduces the bandwidth consumed. You can manually specify the video quality for the foreground and the background areas.

Although the upper half is transmitted using a lower quality format, you still have an awareness of what is happening on the whole screen. non-ROI: lower-quality ROI:...
  • Page 91 VIVOTEK it rate control ■ B 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. The bit rates are selectable at the following rates: 20Kbps, 30Kbps, 40Kbps, 50Kbps, 64Kbps, 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 768Kbps, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 3Mbps, 4Mbps, 6Mbps, 8Mbps, 10Mbps, 12Mbps, 14Mbps, ~ to 80Mbps.
  • Page 92 VIVOTEK Fixed quality: On the other hand, if Fixed quality is selected, all frames are transmitted with the same quality; bandwidth utilization is therefore unpredictable. The video quality can be adjusted to the following settings: Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed, and Excellent.
  • Page 93 VIVOTEK JPEG If the mode is selected, the Network Camera sends consecutive JPEG images to the client, producing a moving effect similar to a filmstrip. Every single JPEG image transmitted guarantees the same image quality, which in turn comes at the expense of variable bandwidth usage. Because the media contents are a combination of JPEG images, no audio data is transmitted to the client.
