"Default location" defines where, by default, media will be
stored and managed. Wherever in Buffalo Surveillance
Server there is an option to use a default location, Buffalo
Surveillance Server will use the default location.
"Data streams" refers to how many connections can be
made to a Vault simultaneously. Having several
connections enables several clients to communicate with
the Vault simultaneously, so the more streams you permit
the greater the requirements for processing power.
This setting defines how much virtual memory is set aside
for incoming and outgoing data during file storage and
retrieval. A larger cache may improve performance but will
do so at the expense of using more virtual memory. The
total amount of space used equals the number of data
streams multiplied by the selected cache size. So, if you
select 10 data streams and 10 MB of cache, the Vault will
set aside 100 MB of total virtual memory for caching data.
A selection of 10 MB is usually sufficient.
This setting enables you to define where the working
cache will be located. The default location is '<install-dir>/
WorkingCache'.
When Buffalo Surveillance Server is processing files, it
sometimes creates temporary files. These enable Buffalo
Surveillance Server to work more quickly and efficiently
and are especially important when you are clipping video
files. Temporary files are kept in the "working cache."
