Image Appearance
Use these settings to modify the image resolution
and compression. Setting the compression level
affects the image quality and the amount of
bandwidth required, the lower the compression, the
higher the image quality with higher bandwidth
requirements. Enable aspect ratio correction to
improve the image appearance when video from an analog camera is displayed on a digital screen (for example a computer
monitor). The image can also be mirrored (reversed) and rotated. See the online help files for more information.
Video Stream
To avoid bandwidth problems on the network, the frame rate allowed to each viewer can be limited. Select the Unlimited
radio button to allow the highest available frame rate or select the Limited to... radio button and enter a value (1-30) fps in
the field.
Text Overlay Settings
Use these settings to include a text, date, and time as
overlay. Click for information on available options.
