VIVOTEK Media > Video Stream settings This Network Camera supports multiple streams with frame sizes ranging from 384 x 216 to 1920 x 1080 pixels. The definition of multiple streams: ■ Stream 1: Users can define the Frame sizes, compression format, image quality, etc. ■ Stream 2: The default frame size for stream 2 is configured to 1920 x 1080. ■ Stream 3: The default frame size for Stream 3 is set to the minimized 640 x 360 for viewing on mobile devices.
VIVOTEK Click the stream item to display the detailed information. . This Network Camera offers real-time H.265, H.264, and MJPEG compression standards (Multiple Codec) for real-time viewing. If the H.265 / H.264 mode is selected, the video is streamed via RTSP protocol. There are several parameters through which you can adjust the video performance: NOTE: ► Video quality and fixed quality refers to the compression rate, so a lower value will produce higher quality.
VIVOTEK ■ Frame size You can set up different video resolution for different viewing devices. For example, set a smaller frame size and lower bit rate for remote viewing on mobile phones and a larger video size and a higher bit rate for live viewing on web browsers. Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. ■ Maximum frame rate This limits the maximum refresh frame rate per second. Set the frame rate higher for smoother video quality and for recognizing moving objects in the field of view.
VIVOTEK Dynamic Intra Frame w/ static scenes P I Static scene P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P I Dynamic Intra Frame w/ activities in scenes P I P P P P P P P I P P P P P P P I P P P Activities With the H.265 codec in an optimal scenario and when the Dynamic Intra frame and the Smart Stream function are applied, an 80% of bandwidth saving can be achieved compared with using H.264 without enabling these bandwidth-saving features.
VIVOTEK NOTE: Comparing with Smart Stream II, Smart Stream III has two more configurable options: Smart Q, and Smart FPS. • Smart codec: Smart codec effectively reduces the quality of the whole or the noninterested areas on a screen and therefore reduces the bandwidth consumed. You can manually specify the video quality for the foreground and the background areas. Select an operation mode if Smart codec is preferred.
VIVOTEK As the result, the lower screen is constantly displayed in high details, while the upper half is transmitted using a lower-quality format. Although the upper half is transmitted using a lower quality format, you still have an awareness of what is happening on the whole screen.
VIVOTEK ■ Bit rate control Constrained bit rate: • A complex scene generally produces a larger file size, meaning that higher bandwidth will be needed for data transmission. The bandwidth utilization is configurable to match a selected level, resulting in mutable video quality performance. The bit rates are selectable at the following rates: 20Kbps, 30Kbps, 40Kbps, 50Kbps, 64Kbps, 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 768Kbps, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 3Mbps, 4Mbps, 6Mbps, 8Mbps, 10Mbps, 12Mbps, 14Mbps, ~ to 40Mbps.
VIVOTEK Fixed quality: On the other hand, if Fixed quality is selected, all frames are transmitted with the same quality; bandwidth utilization is therefore unpredictable. The video quality can be adjusted to the following settings: Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed, and Excellent. You can also select Customize and manually enter a value.
VIVOTEK If the JPEG mode is selected, the Network Camera sends consecutive JPEG images to the client, producing a moving effect similar to a filmstrip. Every single JPEG image transmitted guarantees the same image quality, which in turn comes at the expense of variable bandwidth usage. Because the media contents are a combination of JPEG images, no audio data is transmitted to the client.
VIVOTEK Media > Audio Audio Settings Mute: Select this option to disable audio transmission from the Network Camera to all clients. Note that if muted, no audio data will be transmitted even if audio transmission is enabled on the Client Settings page. In that case, the following message is displayed: External microphone input gain: Select the gain of the external audio input according to ambient conditions. Adjust the gain from +21 db (most sensitive) or -33db (least sensitive).
VIVOTEK Audio clips ■ Output gain: Use the slide bar to change the audio output gains value. ■ Audio clip: When the camera's audio input is connected to a microphone, you can record a short period of audio recordings (1 to 10 seconds). You can also use the camera's embedded microphone to record an audio clip, if available. Because the memory space is limited, a recording count down will be available on screen. You can also upload an audio file to the camera's flash memory.
VIVOTEK Network > General settings This section explains how to configure a wired network connection for the Network Camera. Network Type LAN Select this option when the Network Camera is deployed on a local area network (LAN) and is intended to be accessed by local computers.

VIVOTEK Network > Streaming protocols HTTP streaming To utilize HTTP authentication, make sure that your have set a password for the Network Camera first; please refer to Security > User account on page 98 for details. Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the Network Camera provides two types of security settings for an HTTP transaction: basic and digest.
VIVOTEK URL command -- http://:/ For example, when the Access name for stream 2 is set to video1s2.mjpg: 1. Launch the Mozilla Firefox browser. 2. Type the above URL command in the address bar. Press Enter. 3. The JPEG images will be displayed in your web browser.
VIVOTEK Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the Network Camera provides three types of security settings for streaming via RTSP protocol: disable, basic, and digest. If basic authentication is selected, the password is sent in plain text format, but there can be potential risks of it being intercepted. If digest authentication is selected, user credentials are encrypted using MD5 algorithm, thus providing better protection against unauthorized access.
VIVOTEK Multicast settings for stream 1, 2, 3, and 4: Click the items to display the detailed configuration information. Select the Always multicast option to enable multicast for video streams. Unicast video transmission delivers a stream through point-to-point transmission; multicast, on the other hand, sends a stream to the multicast group address and allows multiple clients to acquire the stream at the same time by requesting a copy from the multicast group address.
VIVOTEK SIP SIP is short for Session Initiation Protocol. If necessary, you can change the default port number, 5060, to one between 1025 and 65535. Two way audio port: The Network Camera supports two way audio communication so that operators can transmit and receive audio simultaneously. By using the Network Camera’s built-in or external microphone and an external speaker, you can communicate with people around the Network Camera.
VIVOTEK Network > DDNS This section explains how to configure the dynamic domain name service for the Network Camera. DDNS is a service that allows your Network Camera, especially when assigned with a dynamic IP address, to have a fixed host and domain name.

VIVOTEK Network > QoS (Quality of Service) Quality of Service refers to a resource reservation control mechanism, which guarantees a certain quality to different services on the network. Quality of service guarantees are important if the network capacity is insufficient, especially for real-time streaming multimedia applications. Quality can be defined as, for instance, a maintained level of bit rate, low latency, no packet dropping, etc.
VIVOTEK QoS/DSCP (the DiffServ model) DSCP-ECN defines QoS at Layer 3 (Network Layer). The Differentiated Services (DiffServ) model is based on packet marking and router queuing disciplines. The marking is done by adding a field to the IP header, called the DSCP (Differentiated Services Codepoint). This is a 6-bit field that provides 64 different class IDs. It gives an indication of how a given packet is to be forwarded, known as the Per Hop Behavior (PHB).
VIVOTEK Network > SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) This section explains how to use the SNMP on the network camera. The Simple Network Management Protocol is an application layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of management information between network devices. It helps network administrators to remotely manage network devices and find, solve network problems with ease. ■ The SNMP consists of the following three key components: 1.
