Saturation: Set the degree of color purity. The purer the color, the brighter the image is.

Sharpness: Set the resolution level of the image plane and the sharpness level of the image edge.

Noise Reduction: Decrease the noise and make the image more thorough. Increasing the value will make the noise reduction effect better but it will reduce the image resolution.

Auto Iris: If your camera is auto Iris, please enable it.

Backlight Compensation (BLC):

• Off: disables the backlight compensation function. It is the default mode.
• WDR: WDR can adjust the camera to provide a better image when there are both very bright and very dark areas simultaneously in the field of the view by lowering the brightness of the bright area and increasing the brightness of the dark area.

Recording will be stopped for a few seconds while the mode is changing from non-WDR to WDR mode.

• HLC: lowers the brightness of the entire image by suppressing the brightness of the image's bright area and reducing the size of the halo area.
• BLC: If enabled, the auto exposure will activate according to the scene so that the object of the image in the darkest area will be

seen clearly.

HFR: High Frame Rate. If "ON" is selected, the system will restart and then the maximum value of the frame rate of the main stream can be set to 60 fps /50fps.

Antiflicker:

• Off: disables the anti-flicker function. This is used mostly in outdoor installations.
• 50Hz: reduces flicker in 50Hz lighting conditions.
• 60Hz: reduces flicker in 60Hz lighting conditions.

Smart IR: Choose "ON" or "OFF". This function can effectively avoid image overexposure so as to make the image more realistic. The higher the level is, the more overexposure compensation will be given.

White Balance: Adjust the color temperature according to the environment automatically.

Day/Night Mode: Choose "Auto", "Day", "Night" or "Timing".

Exposure Mode: Choose "Auto" or "Manual". If manual is chosen, the digital shutter speed can be adjusted.

Gain Mode: Choose "Auto" or "Manual". If "Auto" is selected, the gain value will be automatically adjusted according to the actual situation. If "Manual" is selected, the gain value shall be set manually. The higher the value is, the brighter the image is.

Frequency: 50Hz and 60Hz can be optional.

Infra-red Mode: Choose "Auto", "ON" or "OFF".

Corridor Pattern: Corridor viewing modes can be used for situations such as long hallways. 0, 90, 180 and 270 are available. The default value is 0. The video resolution should be 1080P or below if this function is used.

4.2.2 Video / Audio Configuration

Go to Image→Video / Audio interface as shown below. In this interface, set the resolution, frame rate, bitrate type, video quality and so on subject to the actual network condition.

Video Audio Index Stream Resolution Frame Bitrate Bitrate(Kbps) Video I Frame Video Profile 1 Main stre... 2560x1440 ▼ 30 CBR ▼ 4096 ▼ Mediuri ▼ 120 H264 ▼ High Profile ▼ 2 Sub stream 704x480 ▼ 30 CBR ▼ 768 ▼ Mediuri ▼ 120 H264 ▼ High Profile ▼ 3 Third stre... 352x240 ▼ 30 CBR ▼ 512 ▼ Mediuri ▼ 120 H264 ▼ High Profile ▼ Send Snapshot Sub stream ▼ Size: (704x480) □ Watermark (H264 , H265 ) Watermark content: Save

Three video streams can be adjustable.

Resolution: The size of image.

Frame rate: The higher the frame rate, the video is smoother.

Bitrate type: CBR and VBR are optional. Bitrate is related to image quality. CBR means that no matter how much change is seen in the video scene, the compression bitrate will be kept constant. VBR means that the compression bitrate will be adjusted according to scene changes. For example, for scenes that do not have much movement, the bitrate will be kept at a lower value. This can help optimize the network bandwidth usage.

Bitrate: it can be adjusted when the mode is set to CBR. The higher the bitrate, the better the image quality will be.

Video Quality: It can be adjusted when the mode is set to VBR. The higher the image quality, the more bitrate will be required.

I Frame interval: It determines how many frames are allowed between a “group of pictures”. When a new scene begins in a video, until that scene ends, the entire group of frames (or pictures) can be considered as a group of pictures. If there is not much movement in the scene, setting the value higher than the frame rate is fine, potentially resulting in less bandwidth usage. However, if the value is set too high, and there is a high frequency of movement in the video, there is a risk of frame skipping.

Video Compression: MJPEG, H264+, H264, H265or H265+can be optional. If H.265/H.265+/H.265S is chosen, make sure the client system is able to decode H.265/H.265+. Compared to H.265, H.265+ saves more storage space with the same maximum bitrate in most scenes. Compared to H.264, H.265 reduces the transmission bitrate under the same resolution, frame rate and image quality.

Profile: For H.264. Baseline, main and high profiles are selectable.

Profile: For H.264. Baseline, main and high profiles are selectable

Send Snapshot: Set the snapshot stream.

Video encode slice split: If this function is enabled, smooth image can be gotten even though using the low-performance PC.
