Partially Configurable Cameras
Figure 18: Encoding parameters for partially configurable cameras
Cameras without full configurability will show the parameters reflecting the key
functionality of that manufacturers’ camera. Not all features of some
manufacturer’s camera are supported in the TVN 20.
If the TVN 20 supports multiple encoding parameters, follow the same steps for a
fully configurable camera.
Follow the steps for Fully Configurable Cameras based upon the options enabled
and choices available in the drop down lists.

Variable Bitrates
Select this method if you desire to optimize recording as the data rate
varies based upon the scene complexity.
Use this especially for cameras where the background or scene activity
may be less intense.
