NOTEProtocol Options which allows choices on connection protocol between client and
server. There are three protocols choices to optimize your usage UDP,TCP,HTTP.
The UDP protocol allows for more real-time audio and video streams. However, some
packets may be lost due to network burst traffic and images may be obscured.
The HTTP protocol allows for less packet loss and produces a more accurate video
display. The downside with this protocol is that the real-time effect is worse than that with
the UDP protocol.
The TCP guarantees the complete delivery of streaming data and thus provides better
video quality. However, the real-time effect is not as good as that of the UDP protocol.
If no special need is required, UDP protocol is recommended. Generally speaking, the
client choice will be in the order of UDP → HTTP. After the Network Camera is
connected successfully, ―Protocol Option‖ will indicate the selected protocol. The
selected protocol will be recorded in the user's PC and will be used for the next
connection. If the network environment is changed, or the user wants to let the web
browser to detect again, manually select the UDP and TCP protocol, save, and return
HOME to re-connect.
