ENCODE
This menu can be used to configure the quality of video recording or network transmission images. As a rule, Mainstream
defines the recording video quality that will be saved on the HDD, while Substream defines the video quality that is being
viewed via remote access (e.g. web client & CMS; Mobile Stream defines the video quality that is being viewed via remote
access via mobile devices).
Mainstream / Substream / Mobile Stream / Audio
•
Resolution: This parameter defines the size of the recorded image.
•
Record Settings This parameter defines the number of frames per second that will be recorded by the HVR.
•
Video Encode Type: For the IP camera only. The HVR supports H.264 and H.265.
•
Bitrate Control: This selects the bitrate level. For a simple scene (e.g. a grey wall), a constant bitrate (CBR) is
suitable. A variable bitrate (VBR) is suitable for a more complex scene (e.g. crowded street).
•
Bitrate Mode: To customize the bitrate, select the User-defined mode. Select Predefined mode to select the
default bitrate.
•
Bitrate: This parameter corresponds to the speed of data transfer that the HVR will use for the video recording.
Recordings that are encoded at higher bitrates will be of better quality
