Pixel Counter
The pixel counter shows the number of pixels in an area of the image. The pixel counter is useful in situations where there is
a specific size requirement, for example in face recognition.
The pixel counter can be used:
When setting up a video stream, see Set Up Video Streams on page 17. Under Preview, click Open and select the Show
pixel counter option to enable the rectangle in the image. Use the mouse to move and resize the rectangle, or enter the
number of pixels in the Width and Height fields and click Apply.
Image
The default image settings can be configured under Video> Video Stream. Select the Image tab.
The following settings are available:
Resolution. Select the default resolution.
Compression. The compression level affects the image quality, bandwidth and file size of saved images; the lower the
compression, the higher the image quality with higher bandwidth requirements and larger file sizes.
Rotate image. If required, the image can be rotated.
Maximum frame rate. To avoid bandwidth problems, the frame rate allowed to each viewer can be Limited to a fixed
amount. Alternatively, the frame rate can be set as Unlimited, which means the Axis product always delivers the highest
frame rate possible under the current conditions.
Overlay settings. See Overlay on page 20.
Click Save to apply the new settings.
H.264
H.264, also known as MPEG-4 Part 10/AVC, is a video compression standard that provides high quality video streams at low bit rates.
An H.264 video stream consists of different types of frames such as I-frames and P-frames. An I-frame is a complete image whereas
P-frames only contain the differences from previous frames.
