Also the LAN IP address is now fixed at a static IP address of http://192.168.1.110:2000. This IP address not change even if the camera is powered off and back on, the camera will remain on this LAN IP address. This is very important that a static LAN IP address is set, or you may have problems late remote access and seeing the camera remotely if the camera loses power and reconnects on a different LAN IP address. Make sure you set a static LAN IP address!

Stream Type: There are four types to identify different streams you have set. If select the HD Mode, the clearer video will become, and it will take up more bandwidth.

Resolution: The camera supports multiple types, For example: 2K, 1080P, 720P, VGA. The higher the resolution is, the clearer video will become. But the code flux will become larger too, and it will take more bandwidth. (Different models support different specific types.)

Bit Rate: Generally speaking, the larger the bit rate is, the clearer video will become. But the bit rate configuration should combine well with the network bandwidth. When the bandwidth is very narrow, an bit rate is large, that will lead to video can not play well.

Frame Rate: Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. You should lower frame rate when the bandwidth is limited. Normally, when the frame rate above 15, you can achieve fluently video. The maximum frame rate for each model is different.

Key Frame Interval: The time between last key frame and next key frame. The shorter the duration, the more likely you will get a better video quality, but at the cost of higher network bandwidth consump

Variable bitrate: The camera will change the video bit rate according to the situation, but will not more than the maximum parameter "Bit Rate". You can select "Yes" or "No" to turn on and off Variable Bitate

Stream type: There are four types to identify different streams you have set.

Resolution: The camera supports multiple types. For example: 1080P, 720P, VGA. The higher the resolution is, the clearer video will become. But the code flux will become larger too, and it will take bandwidth. (Different models support different specific types.)

Bit Rate: Generally speaking, the larger the bit rate is, the clearer video will become. But the bit rate configuration should combine well with the network bandwidth. When the bandwidth is very narrow, and is large, that will lead to video can not play well.

Frame Rate: Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. When the video format is 50Hz, the maximum frame rate is 25 fps. When the video format is 60Hz, the maximum frame rate is 30 fps. Y lower frame rate when the bandwidth is limited. Normally, when the frame rate above 15, you can ach fluently video.

Key Frame Interval: The time between last key frame and next key frame. The shorter the duration, the more likely you will get a better video quality, but at the cost of higher network bandwidth consumption.

Variable Bitrate: Select the Bit rate type to constant or variable. If select Yes, the camera will change the video bit rate according to the situation, but will not more than the maximum parameter "Bit Rate"; If select No, the Bit Rate is unchanged.
