A/V Streams Tab
Use the A/V Streams tab to configure the video and audio streams for the camera. The A/V Streams tab
includes a Video Presets page, a Video Configuration page, and an Audio Configuration page.
Video Presets
The Video Preset page includes three fully-configured video presets, which include primary and
secondary video stream settings for easy setup. These presets may also be used as a starting point for a
custom video configuration. These preset configurations vary depending on camera model.
Video Configuration
The Video Configuration page allows you to customize the compression, resolution, image rate, and bit
rate of the video streams. The default names for the streams are Primary Stream and Secondary Stream.
Although each stream can be configured independently, the settings of one stream can limit the options
available to the other stream, depending on the processing power used.
Always configure the primary stream before the secondary stream. The primary stream should always
be the most resource-intensive of the streams.
Audio Configuration
The Audio Configuration page allows you to setup the internal audio device or an external audio device.
The default setting for Audio is disabled, which means that no audio is transmitted from the camera.
When enabled, audio is transmitted from the camera to the PC. Based on your system configuration,
images and audio may not be synchronized.
Note Improper use of audio/visual recording equipment may subject you to civil and criminal penalties.
Applicable laws regarding the use of such capabilities vary between jurisdictions and may require,
among other things, express written consent from the recorded subjects. You are solely responsible for
insuring strict compliance with such laws and for strict adherence to any/all rights of privacy and
personalty.
