Video
Lets you adjust the settings for your camera's live video stream.
• Video size: You can select how large the image sent from the
camera is. Setting a high resolution requires a higher data rate to
properly stream images.
• Max frame rate: The frame rate is a measurement of how many
individual images are sent to the camera each second. Anything
above 15 frames per second (fps) looks like smooth video, with 25
- 30 being typical for TV broadcasts. The max frame rate setting
will limit the number of frames sent to whatever you set it to.
• Bandwidth: How much data the camera will send. More data will
lead to a potentially higher quality image, allowing for higher
resolutions, quality settings and frame rate.
• Video quality: How much information will be sent per-pixel. High
quality settings look great, but the bandwidth required to send
the image will be much higher. This is also going to depend on
the speed of your Internet connection. Adjusting the video quality
may produce a smoother looking image.
• Power frequency: Set this to the frequency of AC power in your area. Some devices (such as TV screens) will flicker if this is not set
correctly. For the USA and Canada, set this to 60Hz. For Australia and the UK, set this to 50Hz.
• Video inversion: You can choose to flip the image horizontally, vertically or both.
• Constant/Variable video stream rate: Whether the data rate will adapt to the amount of information in the video.
• With time stamp: When selected, the time stamp will be broadcast over the camera's image.
• Enable AU (Access Unit) header: Toggles this option on and off. An AU header is an advanced networking option - if you don't know what it
means, we suggest disabling this.
• Accelerate the video stream: Applies additional streamlining to the way the video signal is sent. This will increase the performance at the
cost of stability. If the stream becomes unstable, disable this option.
