  • Page 31 Video Compression: Options are H264 (AVC) or H265 (HEVC). Video compression allows for the video signal to be streamed over the network while utilizing less space (data and bandwidth), while still maintaining a good-quality image. While this does cause some image degradation, compression only removes unwanted frames of video (determined by codec) and still maintains the necessary data and high quality required to stream.
  • Page 32 Quantization is a lossy compression technique where a determination is made about the amount of color data that will be encoded into a video stream. This is possible by compressing a range of color values into a single value, usually in a manner that is not discernable to the human eye. The quantization setting determines the amount of compression for all the macroblocks in a frame.
  • Page 33   Pattern: Static and DHCP DHCP - The IP Address of the device will be determined and dynamically assigned from the network gateway (router). This is recommended when the device is being installed on a network where the available IPs are unknown and a quick setup is required. Static IP- The user will de ne and enter the IP address of the device.
  • Page 34     TCP Port: TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a reliable, connection-oriented protocol used to ensure the secure and ordered delivery of data. TCP guarantees that transmitted video frames are received without loss and in the correct order, making it suitable for applications where data integrity is crucial, even though it may introduce slightly higher latency.
  • Page 35   HTTP Port: HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is the protocol for data communication on the network, used for the transfer of text, images, sound, video, and other les between web browsers and servers. The HTTP port is the speci c network port through which devices establish connections for communication, facilitating the exchange of information between clients (such as web browsers) and servers on a local network or the Internet.
