enough to allow a transmission rate of greater than 20 image frames per second. If
the broadband network is over 1 Mbps, set the “Fix bit rate” to 1000Kbps or
1200Kbps, or set “Fix quality” at the highest quality. The maximum frame rate is 25
fps in a 50Hz system and 30 fps in a 60Hz system. If your network bandwidth is
more than 384Kbps, you can fix the bit rate according to your bandwidth and set the
maximum frame rate to 25 fps or 30 fps. If you are shooting fast-moving images,
you may want to slow the maximum frame rate down to 20 fps in order to lower the
rate of data transmission. This allows for better video quality and the human eyes
cannot readily detect the differences between those of 20, 25, or 30 frames per
second. If your network bandwidth is below 384 Kbps, set the “Fix bit rate”
according to your bandwidth and try to get the best performance by fine-tuning with
the “Maximum frame rate”. In a slow network, greater frame rate results in blur
images. Another work-around is to choose “Half” in the “Size” option for better
images, or “Halfx2” for a larger image view. Video quality performance will vary
somewhat due to the number of users viewing on the network; even when the
parameters have initially been finely tuned. Performance will also suffer due to poor
connectivity because of the network’s burst constraint.
In multi-user environment, the user who has poor network performance will receive
only the key frame in MPEG4 format. Try to reduce the key frame interval can
improve the frame rate for poor network performance, but the penalty is the
increasing of network traffic. If the server is running on the Internet, select the
“improve efficiency in the multi-user environment” will improve the efficiency in the
multi-user environment.
Only Quality Images Will Do
To have the best video quality, you should set “Fix quality” at “Detailed” or
“Excellent” and adjust the “Maximum frame rate” to match your network’s
bandwidth. If your network is slow and you receive “broken” pictures, go to the
HTTP protocol in “Connection type” and choose a more appropriate mode of
transmission. The images may suffer a time delay due to a slower connection.
Somewhere Between Real-time and Clear Images
If you have a broadband network, set “Fix quality” at ”Normal” or better, rather than
setting “Fix bit rate”. You can also fix the bandwidth according to your actual
network speed and adjust the frame rate. Start from 30 fps down for best results
