7.1 CAMERA
7.12 Stream Setup
Click on Stream Setup under the title Camera to change the image parameters of the camera.
There are 3 video streams available. The Primary and Secondary stream can be configured
separately to different resolutions in order to access different video streams without the need
to change any settings. The Mobile stream is similar to the first two streams but is purely for
mobile viewing and has a fixed resolution.
Image size] Three image resolutions available: 640 x 480(VGA), 320 x 240(QVGA), 160 x 120.
[Frame rate] Twelve options: 1/2/3/4/5/6/8/10/15/20/25/30 frames per second (fps).
The frame rate is automatically determined by the camera and this depends on the network
bandwidth available at the time. This frame ratesetting imposes the maximum frame rate that
the camera will transmit.
[Bit rate] Eight options: 64, 128, 256, 512, 768, 1024, 1536, 2048 (kbps).
The above three settings determine the image quality, however higher bit rates require greater
bandwidth. Please select the appropriate settings according to your connection speed and
network traffic. If you are experiencing jerky video it may be necessary to decrease the bit
rate.
[RTSP authentication] Enable or disable MPEG4 RTSP authentication. RealPlayer can be used to
view the live stream from the Y-cam White, but RealPlayer does not support authentication, so the
authentication of MPEG4 RTSP should be disabled. This however may expose the camera to
unauthorised access. QuickTime Player, on the other hand, supports authentication and can be used to
view the live stream.
[MJPEG Quality] The quality of the picture on a mobile or on a non-internet Explorer Browser.
It can be from 20~100
Note: Clicking on the name of the stream will display the various paths to the particular
video stream for both internal and external access.
