• Video: H.265 video streaming is currently not supported in any browser
Video streaming
AXIS Media Control is no longer required for video streaming H.264 or RTSP. Displaying H.264 and RTSP video streams in the web
interface (e.g. live view or when setting up analytics) requires that the browser can connect over WebSockets. Support for RTSP video
streams over WebSockets requires an updated browser and that the network and proxy settings are configured to allow WebSockets.
The viewing experience depends on the performance of the computer, the browser, and its encoding capabilities. If a video stream is
lagging, the web interface either notifies the user or restarts the video stream automatically in case it lags a lot. If the user experiences
continuous lagging, they should adapt to the computer's performance by lowering the resolution of the video stream stepwise. When
viewing video streams in higher resolutions than 1080 pixels, they should use a computer with a powerful CPU and graphics card.*
*Tested and verified with the following configuration: Google Chrome™ (latest version) on Windows® 10 or Linux, Intel® Core™ i7-4770

Note
On some Linux systems, the web page might flicker when MJPEG is used. This can be resolved by turning off hardware
acceleration in the browser.
