Video & Image
To optimize the video images to your requirements, modify the following settings
under Image Appearance:
• Resolution
• Compression
• Rotate Image
Note:
All configuration of images and overlays will affect the performance of the AXIS 213, depending on
the usage and the available bandwidth. Please keep in mind the following when changing the image
settings:
• Lower compression improves image quality, but generates larger files
• Color uses more bandwidth than Black & White
• Rotating the image 90 or 270 degrees will lower the maximum frame rate
• When using MPEG-4 as the video format, the compression setting will define the minimum
compression level. The compression level will temporarily increase as and when required, i.e. when the
bit rate approaches the maximum value as defined in the current profile@level combination.
