AXIS 292 - Video & Audio settings
Using the Video & Audio tools
Video Encoder
Address - Enter the IP address of the video encoder the AXIS 292 is connected to.
User Name and Password - If you enter a valid user name and password, you can access the
video stream by clicking the button View next to the input field.
Note: Selecting a user with viewing rights only on the encoder is recommended.
Video Source
Video Source Number - Some video encoders support multiple video channels and/or quad
stream. If this is available you can select which channel to connect to. The value has no
effect if the video encoder only has one channel.
Note: The AXIS 292 does not support HTTPS. If the selected video source requires HTTPS, no video stream will be
available to the AXIS 292.
Video Source Type - Video streams are accepted from video sources that support any of the
following formats: Motion JPEG, MPEG-2 Unicast or MPEG-2 Multicast. Automatic
detection of video source type is recommended. However, if there is no connection, select
format from the drop-down menu.
Interlace Mode - Using automatic detection is recommended for all operating modes. If
moving objects seem to be shaking, select either interlace or progressive mode to obtain a
better image. The interlace mode is only valid for Motion JPEG sources. It is mostly used
when the stream to be decoded is fetched from a video source with large resolution, using
an external analog camera.
Auto-connect at Boot - When the AXIS 292 is powered (booted), this parameter controls if
automatic connection to the video source should be made. The default setting is to
automatically connect to the video source specified.
Connect/Disconnect button - The Connect/Disconnect button next to the drop-down menu
allows you to explicitly connect or disconnect. The IP addresses for the AXIS 292 and the
video encoder are shown on the TV monitor when the video source is disconnected. This
button has the same behavior as the front panel video select button.
Note: If the settings of a connected Motion JPEG video encoder are changed, it is necessary to first disconnect
and then reconnect the encoder for the settings to take effect on the decoded video signal.
Video Out
Video Out - Select the correct standard from the drop-down list; PAL - the dominant
standard in Europe, or NTSC - the common standard in the United States and Japan.
