Introduction

The View Manager is a Windows based application for managing cameras of our Navigator Enterprise servers, NVRs, and DVRs. Major features of the View Manager include remote live monitoring, remote video playback, remote video backup, remove device status report, PTZ control, and user authentication.

View Manager 3.1

The View Manager is a 64-bit Windows program that supports up to 65,000 cameras and 128 group views. Each group views can have a maximum of 144 channels. This software is an ideal solution for managing a large amount of installations across the Internet

● View Manager central group management database
● View Manager central event management
● Support multi-channel simultaneous playback and backup
● Each group screen supports simultaneous 144 channel network real time images or historical data

The screen display can be customized when performing remote monitoring. User authentication can access own group view. Remote video playback and backup can remotely access video clips in Navigator software, NVR, DVR and/or IP camera SD card. The View Manager software can also provide video loss messages, recording status, connection status, among others.

Note: The View Manager is free to download and install.

View Manager 3.1 CPU Decoding

The literal understanding is to use software decoding, but in fact it still needs hardware CPU support. In the software decoding process, a large amount of video information needs to be calculated, so the CPU performance requirement is very high, especially for high-resolution streaming, the more channel images, the higher the CPU usage. However, with the compatibility and convenience of software decoding, as long as the CPU performance is strong and there is no need for multi-screen output, the cost of external graphics cards can be saved.

The number of channels depends on the CPU cache speed (multiple split screen 480P 15FPS).

H.264 Video decoding CPU types recommended:

● Single screen, 36 channels, CPU i5-8500 and above.
● Single screen, 72 channels, CPU i7-8700 and above.
● Dual screen, 100 channels, CPU i7-9700K and above.
● Dual screen, 144 channels, CUP i7-9900K and above.

H.265 Video decoding CPU types recommended:

● Single screen, 18 channels, CPU i5-8500 and above.
● Single screen, 36 channels, CPU i7-8700 and above.
● Dual screen, 50 channels, CPU i7-9700K and above.
● Dual screen, 72 channels, CUP i7-9900K and above.

View Manager System Requirements

● Processor: Intel i7 Quad core 3.0 Ghz and above.
● Memore: 8GB DDR4 and above (Recommended: 16GB and above).
● Operating System: Windows 10 64Bit (Recommended: Professional Edition Version 1909 and above).
● Graphics Card: GTX1650 same level and above (Recommended: 4GB and above).
- It is recommended to use dedicated graphic cards.
- It is necessary to connect a physical monitor or install a virtual EDID emulator, otherwise Direct3D will not work normally, resulting in black screens in real-time and playback videos.
- Please do not connect Virtual EDID simulator and external output simultaneously.

Abbreviation Table

● PTZ : Pan, tilt, and zoom camera
● DVR : Digital video recorder
NVR : Network video recorder
- HDD : Hard disk drive
● FPS : Frame rate per second
- OSD : On-screen display

Function Keys of the View Manager

Press F2 to see the bitrate and frame rate (FPS) information, which can be used to determine the smoothness of the video. When the bandwidth is very low, a user chooses a proper stream according to the bandwidth information.

Press F2 to see the device name and time combination display mode. There are 6 display modes as follows:

Hide Device Name	Display Device Name	Display Device Name and Time (HMS)
Display Device Name, Date (YMD) and Time (HMS)	Display Time (HMS) Display Date (YMD) and Time

The device streaming has 2 display modes available.

The following information can be displayed:

1. Resolution, Number of Frames (FPS), Streaming Size (bitrate), channel number
2. Resolution, Number of Frames (FPS), Streaming Size (bitrate), channel number [QXX,CXX,4p/5p]

The Q, C, P, i, j numerical description is as follows:

Q (Queue Value)	Image processing buffer reference value, theoretically Q10 is the best.● The lower queue reduces the delay, but it will be affected by network packets and the video data will not be received completely.● The higher queue will lead to the delay that will cause uneven picture.
C1 CPU processing thread “C1~C4”. If the image needs higher CPU processing, for example:60/120/4K fisheye camera.
I Intel GPU Decode
N Nvidia GPU Decode
4P H.264 P-frame
5P H.265 P-frame
4i H.264 i-frame
5i H.265 i-frame
j	J P E G

GPU Decode is described as follows:

• CPU Decode(C) : The Intel CPU system automatically determines how many threads the device requires (C1\~C4)
  Intel GPU Decode(I) : Supports Intel HD530 series and above.
  ● Nvidia GPU Decode(N) : Supports Nvidia GTX 1030 series and above.

In the early days when monitoring computers have to display multiple channels, but the CPU performance is insufficient, GPU decoding functions are used to greatly reduce the burden on the CPU and provide more analytic video monitoring through the graphics card. But now, the CPU performance is sufficient to cope with it and additional graphics card GPU is no longer required to aid the CPU.

List of Display Resolution is as follows:

CIF	320x240
VGA	640x480
480p	720x480
720p	1280x720
FHD	1920x1080
WFHD	2560x1440
QFHD	3840x2160

Chapter 10 Troubleshooting

Chapter 10.1 Hard Disk Supported

Chapter 10.2 Choosing between SMR and CMR in Hard Drives

Many people ask what is the right hard drive for the intended use. Because different recording methods have different performance. SMR is used for cold data storage and CMR is used for repeated reading and writing data. Both technologies have their own characteristics for reasonable and right application.

In our guide, it is usually recommended to use CMR hard disks. When the recording host often reads and writes or important data transmission is important, CMR hard disks are a good choice. It is recommended to choose the Pro series of the same model, which can read and write for a long time. To maintain life and warranty, the following are WD and Seagate series hard drives.

For more detailed hard drive model brands, please consult the original manufacturer's technology.

Brand	Model #	Format	Application	RAID Supported Quantity
WD Purple Surveillance AI CMR	DVR&N	VR monitoring power saving or small video recording	8 Bay
WD Red Pro NAS CMR NAS RA	AID area recording 16 Bay
WD Ultrastar DC HC530 CMR	Mixed use of mid-level databases and NAS 16 Bay
WD Ultrastar DC HC550	CMR	For advanced database and multiple channel recording	24 Bay
WD Gold Enterprise	CMR	For advanced frequent writing & recalling, JBOD and multiple channel recording	24 Bay

Brand	Model #	Format	Application	RAID Supported Quantity
Seagate	SkyHawk AI	CMR	DVR&NVR monitoring power saving or small video recording	8 Bay
Seagate	IronWolf Pro NAS	CMR	NAS RAID area recording	16 Bay
Seagate	Enteprise Exos 7E8	PMR	For advanced database and multiple channel recording	24 Bay
Seagate	Enteprise Exos X16	PMR	For advanced frequent writing & recalling, JBOD and multiple channel recording	24 Bay

Note: Technically speaking, SMR also uses a vertical magnetization method, so in order to segregate, the original PMR is renamed CMR.

Note: With different hard disk grades or types, the hard disk will have a certain period of time decline when writing and reading, and then it will return to normal writing speed. Usually, it is recommended to use the database enterprise-grade hard disk to process a large number of videos or access data
