Stream Profiles

A stream profile is a set of predefined stream settings including resolution, compression, frame rate and overlay settings. Stream
profiles can be used:
• When setting up recording using action rules. See Events, on page 36.
• When setting up continuous recording. See Continuous Recording, on page 40.
• In the Live View page – select the stream profile from the Stream profile drop-down list.
For quick setup, use one of the predefined stream profiles. Each predefined profile has a descriptive name, indicating its purpose. If
required, the predefined stream profiles can be modified and new customized stream profiles can be created.
To create a new profile or modify an existing profile, go to Setup > Video > Stream Profiles.
To select a default stream profile for the Live View page, go to Setup > Live View Config.

Camera Settings

The Video > Camera Settings page provides access to advanced image settings for the Axis product.
Capture Mode
The capture mode setting reduces image flicker in fluorescent light environments as image data is sampled at a rate that matches the
local power line frequency.
Capture mode is set the first time the product is accessed. Select the capture mode with the power line frequency (50 Hz or
60 Hz) used at the location of the Axis product and click OK.
When using 50 Hz, the maximum frame rate is limited to 25 fps.
Note
Power line frequency is different in different geographic regions. In the Americas, 60 Hz is usually used; most other parts of
the world use 50 Hz. Local variations may apply, always check with the local authorities.
Changing capture mode when the product has been configured is not recommended as most other settings will be either removed
or reset, for example:
1. Go to Setup > Video > Camera Settings.
2. Select the new capture mode.
3. Click Save.
4. Review and reconfigure all settings, for example:
- View areas
- Stream profiles
- PTZ settings including preset positions and guard tours
- Gatekeeper
- Motion detection windows
- Privacy masks
- Image overlays
- Exposure zones
