MPEG-4 Protocol Options

MPEG-4 Protocol Options

UDP Unicast
○ UDP Multicast
TCP
HTTP

Depending on your network environment, there are four transmission modes of MPEG-4 streaming:

UDP unicast: This protocol allows for more real-time audio and video streams. However, network packets may be lost due to network burst traffic and images may be broken. Activate UDP connection when occasions require time-sensitive responses and the video quality is less important. Note that each unicast client connecting to the server takes up additional bandwidth and the Network Camera allows up to ten simultaneous accesses.

UDP multicast: This protocol allows multicast-enabled routers to forward network packets to all clients requesting streaming media. This helps to reduce the network transmission load of the Network Camera while serving multiple clients at the same time. Note that to utilize this feature, the Network Camera must be configured to enable multicast streaming at the same time. For more information, see RTSP Streaming on page 34.

TCP: This protocol guarantees the complete delivery of streaming data and thus provides better video quality. The downside of this protocol is that its real-time effect is not as good as that of the UDP protocol.

HTTP: This protocol allows the same quality as TCP protocol without needing to open specific ports for streaming under some network environments. Users inside a firewall can utilize this protocol to allow streaming data through.

HTTP

To utilize HTTP authentication, make sure that your have set a password for the Network Camera first; please refer to Security on page 23 for details.

HTTP Authentication: basic HTTP port: 80 Secondary HTTP port: 8080 Access name for stream 1: video.mjpg Access name for stream 2: video2.mjpg

Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the Network Camera provides two types of security settings for an HTTP transaction: basic and digest.

If basic authentication is selected, the password is sent in plain text format and there can be potential risks of being intercepted. If digest authentication is selected, user credentials are encrypted using MD5 algorithm and thus provide better protection against unauthorized accesses.

HTTP port / Secondary HTTP port: By default, the HTTP port is set to 80 and the secondary HTTP port is set to 8080. They can also be assigned to another port number between 1025 and 65535. If the ports are incorrectly assigned, the following warning messages will be displayed:

Microsoft Internet Explorer HTTP port must be 80 or from 1025 to 65535 OK

Microsoft Internet Explorer Secondary HTTP port must be from 1025 to 65535 OK

To access the Network Camera on the LAN, both the HTTP port and secondary HTTP port can be used to access the Network Camera. For example, when the HTTP port is set to 80 and the secondary HTTP port is set to 8080, refer to the list below for the Network Camera's IP address.

Access name for stream 1 / Access name for stream 2: The access name is used to differentiate the streaming source.

When using Mozilla Firefox or Netscape to access the Network Camera and the video mode is set to JPEG, users will receive video comprised of continuous JPEG images. This technology, known as “server push”, allows the Network Camera to feed live pictures to Mozilla Firefox and Netscape.

URL command -- http://:/ For example, when the Access name for stream 2 is set to video2.mjpg:

1. Launch Mozilla Firefox or Netscape.
2. Type the URL command in the address bar. Press Enter.
3. The JPEG images will be displayed in your web browser.

RTSP Streaming

To utilize the RTSP streaming authentication, make sure that your have set a password for the Network Camera first; please refer to Security on page 23 for details.

RTSP Streaming Authentication: disable Access name for stream 1: live.sdp Access name for stream 2: live2.sdp RTSP port: 554 RTP port for video: 5556 RTCP port for video: 5557 RTP port for audio: 5558 RTCP port for audio: 5559 Multicast settings for stream 1: Multicast settings for stream 2:

Save

Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the Network Camera provides three types of security settings for streaming via RTSP protocol: disable, basic and digest.

If basic authentication is selected, the password is sent in plain text format; there can be potential risks of being intercepted. If digest authentication is selected, user credentials are encrypted in MD5 algorithm and thus provide better protection against unauthorized accesses.

The availability of the RTSP streaming for the three authentication modes is listed in the following table:

	Quick Time player Real Player
Disable O O
Basic O O
Digest O X

Access name for stream 1 / Access name for stream 2: This Network camera supports dual streams simultaneously. The access name is used to differentiate the streaming source.

If you want to use a RTSP player to access the Network Camera, you have to set the video mode to MPEG-4, and use the following RTSP URL command to request transmission of streaming data.

rtsp://:/

For example, when the access name for stream 1 is set to live.sdp:

1. Launch an RTSP player.
2. Choose File > Open URL. A URL dialog box will pop up.
3. Type the URL command in the text box. For example:

RTSP port /RTP port for video, audio/ RTCP port for video, audio

The RTSP (Real-Time Streaming Protocol) controls the delivery of streaming media. By default, the port number is set to 554.

■ The RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) is used to deliver video and audio data to the clients. By default, the RTP port for video is set to 5556 and the RTP port for audio is set to 5558.
■ The RTCP (Real-time Transport Control Protocol) allows the Network Camera to transmit the data by monitoring Internet traffic volume. By default, the RTCP port for video is set to 5557 and the RTCP port for audio is set to 5559.

The five ports can be changed to values between 1025 and 65535. The RTP port must be an even number and the RTCP port is the RTP port number plus one, and thus is always odd. When the RTP port changes, the RTCP port will change accordingly.

If the RTP ports are incorrectly assigned, the following warning message will be displayed:

Microsoft Internet Explorer Invalid port number. RTP video port must be an even number. OK

Multicast settings for stream 1 / Multicast settings for stream 2: Click the items to display the detailed configuration information. Select the Always multicast option to enable multicast for stream 1 or stream 2.

Multicast settings for stream 1: □ Always multicast Multicast group address: 239.128.1.99 Multicast video port: 5560 Multicast RTCP video port: 5561 Multicast audio port: 5562 Multicast RTCP audio port: 5563 Multicast TTL [1~255]: 15 Multicast settings for stream 2: □ Always multicast Multicast group address: 239.128.1.100 Multicast video port: 5564 Multicast RTCP video port: 5565 Multicast audio port: 5566 Multicast RTCP audio port: 5567 Multicast TTL [1~255]: 15

Unicast video transmission delivers a stream through point-to-point transmission; multicast, on the other hand, sends a stream to the multicast group address and allows multiple clients to acquire the stream at the same time by requesting a copy from the multicast group address. Therefore, enabling multicast can effectively save Internet bandwidth.

The five ports can be changed to values between 1025 and 65535. The multicast RTP port must be an even number and the multicast RTCP port number is the multicast RTP port number plus one, and is thus always odd. When the multicast RTP port changes, the multicast RTCP port will change accordingly. If the multicast RTP video ports are incorrectly assigned, the following warning message will be

displayed:

Microsoft Internet Explorer Invalid port number. Multicast streams 1 video port must be an even number. OK

Multicast TTL [1\~255]: The multicast TTL (Time to live) is the value that tells the router the range a packet can be forwarded.

More secure than WEP, the Wi-Fi Alliance developed WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) in 2003 to address WEP's weaknesses. Improvements included TKIP, which changes the encryption key for each data transmission.

■ Algorithm: Choose one of the following algorithms for WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK modes. TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol): A security protocol used in IEEE 802.11 wireless networks. TKIP is a “wrapper” that goes around the existing WEP encryption. TKIP is comprised of the same encryption engine and RC4 algorithm defined for WEP; however, the key used for encryption in TKIP is 128 bits long. This solves the first problem of WEP: a short key length. (From Wikipedia)

AES (Advanced Encryption Standard): In cryptography, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), also known as Rijndael, is a block cipher adopted as an encryption standard by the U.S. government. As of 2006, AES is one of the most popular algorithms used in symmetric key cryptography. (From Wikipedia)

■ Pre-shared Key: Enter a key in ASCII format. The length of the key can be between 8 to 63 characters.

1. WPA2-PSK: Use WPA2 pre-shared key.

This advanced protocol, certified through Wi-Fi Alliance's WPA2 program, implements the mandatory elements of 802.11i. In particular, it introduces a new AES-based algorithm, CCMP, that is considered fully secure. From March 13, 2006, WPA2 certification is mandatory for all new devices wishing to be certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance as "Wi-Fi CERTIFIED." (From Wikipedia)

NOTE

▶ After wireless configurations are completed, click Save and the camera will reboot. Wait for the live image ito be reloaded to your browser. For VIVOTEK 7000-series cameras, you have to unplug the power and Ethernet cables from the camera; then re-plug the power cable to the camera. The camera will switch to wireless mode.
▶ Some invalid settings may cause the system to fail to respond. Change the configuration settings only if necessary and consult with your network supervisor or experienced users for correct settings. Once the system has lost contact, please refer to Maintenance on page 77 for reset and restore procedures.

■ Frame size

Select the video size. Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. The frame sizes are selectable in the following resolutions: 176 x 144, 360 x 240, 640 x 480, and 800 x 600.

■ Maximum frame rate

This limits the maximal refresh frame rate per second. Set the frame rate higher for a smoother video quality.

If the power line frequency is set to 50Hz, the frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps, and 25fps. If the power line frequency is set to 60Hz, the frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps, 25fps, and 30fps. You can also select Customize and manually enter a value.

■ Intra frame period

Determine how often to plant an I frame. The shorter the duration, the more likely you will get better video quality, but at the cost of higher network bandwidth consumption. Select the intra frame period from the following durations: 1/4 second, 1/2 second, 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, and 4 seconds.

■ Video quality

A complex scene generally produces a larger file size, meaning that higher bandwidth will be needed for data transmission. Therefore, if Constant bit rate is selected, the bandwidth utilization is fixed at a selected level, resulting in mutable video quality performance. The bit rates are selectable at the following rates: 20Kbps, 30Kbps, 40Kbps, 50Kbps, 64Kbps, 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 768Kbps, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 3Mbps, and 4Mbps. You can also select Customize and manually enter a value.

On the other hand, if Fixed quality is selected, all frames are transmitted with the same quality; bandwidth utilization is therefore unpredictable. The video quality can be adjusted to the following settings: Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed, and Excellent. You can also select Customize and manually enter a value.

If JPEG mode is selected, the Network Camera continuously sends JPEG images to the client, producing a moving effect similar to a filmstrip. Every single JPEG image transmitted guarantees the same image quality, which in turn comes at the expense of variable bandwidth usage. Because the media contents are a combination of JPEG images, no audio data is transmitted to the client. There are three parameters provided in MJPEG mode to control the video performance:

■ Frame size

Select the video size. Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. The frame sizes are selectable in the following resolutions: 176 x 144, 360 x 240, 640 x 480, 800 x 600, and 1280 x 1024.

■ Maximum frame rate

This limits the maximal refresh frame rate per second. Set the frame rate higher for a smoother video quality.

If the power line frequency is set to 50Hz, the frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps and 25fps. If the power line frequency is set to 60Hz, the frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps, 25fps, and 30fps. You can also select Customize and manually enter a value.

■ Video quality

The video qualities are selectable at the following settings: Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed, and Excellent. You can also select Customize and manually enter a value.

NOTE

▶ The Maximum frame rate for 800 x 600 and 1280 x 1024 is limited to 8fps.
▶ Video quality and fixed quality refers to the compression rate, so a lower will produce higher quality.

Audio Settings

Audio Settings Use Internal Mute Internal microphone input gain: -10.5 dB External microphone input 0db 20db Audio type AAC GSM-AMR GSM-AMR bit rate: 12.2 Kbps Save

The Network Camera offers two inputs to capture audio - internal microphone or external microphone.

Mute: Select this option to disable audio transmission from the Network Camera to all clients. Note that if mute mode is turned on, no audio data will be transmitted even if audio transmission is enabled on the Client Settings page. In that case, the following message is displayed:

Warning The media type has been changed to video only because the media from server contains no audio OK

Internal microphone input gain: Select the gain of the internal audio input according to ambient conditions. Adjust the gain from +12 db (most sensitive) \~ -34.5 db (least sensitive).

External microphone input: Select the gain of the external audio input according to ambient conditions.

Audio type: Select audio codec AAC or GSM-AMR and the bit rate.

■ AAC provides good sound quality at the cost of higher bandwidth consumption. The bit rates are selectable from:16Kbps, 32Kbps, 48Kbps, 64Kbps, 96Kbps and 128Kbps.
■ GSM-ARM is designed to optimize speech quality and requires less bandwidth. The bit rates are selectable at the following rates: 4.75Kbps, 5.15Kbps, 5.90Kbps, 6.7Kbps, 7.4Kbps, 7.95Kbps, 10.2Kbps and 12.2Kbps.

When completed with the settings on this page, click Save to enable the settings.

Motion Detection

This section explains how to configure the Network Camera to enable motion detection. A total of three motion detection windows can be configured.

Follow the steps below to enable motion detection:

1. Click New to add a new motion detection window.
2. In the Window Name text box, enter a name for the motion detection window.

■ To move and resize the window, drag and drop your mouse on the window.

■ To delete window, click X on the top right corner of the window.

1. Define the sensitivity to moving objects and the space ratio of all alerted pixels by moving the Sensitivity and Percentage slider bar.
2. Click Save to enable the settings.
3. Select Enable motion detection to enable this function.

For example:

√ Enable motion detection

Interior view of a modern living room with white furniture and large windows, showing a close-up of a person's photo frame (no readable text or symbols)

The Percentage Indicator will rise or fall depending on the variation between sequential images. When motions are detected by the Network Camera and are judged to exceed the defined threshold, the red bar rises. Meanwhile, the motion detection window will be outlined in red. Photos or videos can be captured instantly and configured to be sent to a remote server (Email, FTP) by utilizing this feature as a trigger source. For more information on how to set an event, please refer to Application on page 59.

A green bar indicates that even though motions have been detected, the event has not been triggered because the image variations still fall under the defined threshold.

NOTE

Illustration of a cartoon fish in a grid layout with no visible text or symbols

There are two motion detection parameters: Sensitivity and Percentage. In the illustration above, frame A and frame B are two sequential images. Pixel differences between the two frames are detected and highlighted in gray (frame C) and will be compared with the sensitivity setting. Sensitivity is a value that expresses the sensitivity to moving objects. Higher sensitivity settings are expected to detect slight movements while smaller sensitivity settings will neglect them. When the sensitivity is set to 70%, the Network Camera defines the pixels in the purple areas as “alerted pixels” (frame D).

Percentage is a value that expresses the proportion of “alerted pixels” to all pixels in the motion detection window. In this case, 50% of pixels are identified as “alerted pixels”. When the percentage is set to 30%, the motions are judged to exceed the defined threshold; therefore, the motion window will be outlined in red.

For applications that require a high level of security management, it is suggested to use higher sensitivity settings and smaller percentage values.

Trigger

This is the cause or stimulus which defines when to trigger the Network Camera. The trigger source can be configured to use the Network Camera's built-in motion detection mechanism or external digital input devices.

There are several choices of trigger sources as shown below. Select the item to display the detailed configuration options.

■ Video motion detection

This option makes use of the built-in motion detection mechanism as a trigger source. To enable this function, you need to configure a Motion Detection window first. For more information, please refer to Motion detection on page 54 for details.

Trigger Video motion detection Detect motion in window 1 Note: Please configure Motion detection first Periodically Digital input System boot Recording notify

■ Periodically

This option allows the Network Camera to trigger periodically for every other defined minute. Up to 999 minutes are allowed.

Trigger ○ Video motion detection ● Periodically Trigger every other 1 minutes ○ Digital input ○ System boot ○ Recording notify

■ Digital input

This option allows the Network Camera to use an external digital input device or sensor as a trigger source. Depending on your application, there are many choices of digital input devices on the market which helps to detect changes in temperature, vibration, sound, and light, etc.

■ System boot

This option triggers the Network Camera when the power to the Network Camera is disconnected.

■ Recording notify

This option allows the Network Camera to trigger when the recording disk is full or when recording starts to rewrite older data. If you want receive Recording notify message, please refer to page 70 for detailed information.

Event Schedule

Specify the period for the event.

Event Schedule Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Time Always From 00:00 to 24:00 [hh:mm]

■ Select the days of the week.
■ Select the recording schedule in 24-hr time format.

Action

URL Commands of the Network Camera

Overview

For some customers who already have their own web site or web control application, Network Camera/Video server can be easily integrated through convenient URLs. This section specifies the external HTTP based application programming interface. The HTTP based camera interface provides the functionality to request a single image, to control camera functions (PTZ, output relay etc.) and to get and set internal parameter values. The image and CGI-requests are handled by the built in Web server.

Style convention

In URL syntax and in descriptions of CGI parameters, a text within angle brackets denotes a content that is to be replaced with either a value or a string. When replacing the text string also the angle brackets shall be replaced. An example of this is the description of the name for the server, denoted with in the URL syntax description below, that is replaced with the string myserver in the URL syntax example, also below.

URL syntax' are written with the "Syntax:" word written in bold face followed by a box with the referred syntax as seen below. The name of the server is written as . This is intended to be replaced with the name of the actual server. This can either be a name, e.g., "mywebcam" or "thecam.adomain.net" or the associated IP number for the server, e.g., 192.168.0.220.

Syntax:

http:///cgi-bin/viewer/video.jpg

Description of returned data is written with "Return:" in bold face followed by the returned data in a box. All data returned as HTTP formatted, i.e., starting with the string HTTP is line separated with a Carriage Return and Line Feed (CRLF) printed as \r\n.

Return:

HTTP/1.0 \r\n

URL syntax examples are written with "Example:" in bold face followed by a short description and a light grey box with the example.

Example: request a single snapshot image

http://mywebserver/cgi-bin/viewer/video.jpg

General CGI URL syntax and parameters

CGI parameters are written in lower-case and as one word without any underscores or other separators.

When the CGI request includes internal camera parameters, the internal parameters must be written exactly as they are named in the camera or video server. The CGIs are organized in function related directories under the cgi-bin directory. The file extension of the CGI is required.

Syntax:

http://<servername>/cgi-bin/<subdir>[/<subdir>...]/<cgi>.<ext>
[?<parameter>=<value>[&<parameter>=<value>...]] 

Example: Setting digital output #1 to active

http://mywebserver/cgi-bin/dido/setdo.cgi?dol=1
