Configuring the Encoder Properties

For each video input, the S1800e series devices can send video with different

sets of parameters to different locations. The single/dual port devices support

quad-stream encoding with three streams using H.264 compression and one

using MJPEG compression. The multiport devices support triple-stream

encoding provides two streams using H.264 compression and one using MPEG4

compression. You can customize each device in terms of frame rate and

resolution to meet each system requirements.
