3.6. Video Settings
The IP Camera is designed to provide high quality video for viewing from LiveView Software. In this page, you
can modify some settings related to the video viewing:
1. Password (play video) – this is the password needed for viewing the video from the LiveView Software.
Together with the IP Camera ID, you can view the video of this IP Camera anywhere in the world through
the Internet.
2. Internet speed – this is the Internet bandwidth of your network environment. Higher value will generate
higher video quality. But if your internet connection cannot provide more bandwidth than the specified
value, the video quality could degrade. So, please key in a value that is lower than your internet bandwidth.
3. Select resolution & frame rate automatically – you can let the system select the suitable video resolution
and frame rate automatically for you. The selection is based on the “Internet speed” value. This is the
recommended default setting.
4. Resolution – there are three choices: 160x120, 320x240 and 640x480. If you decide to choose the value
manually, you can choose one of the three values. But, please be noticed that if the Internet speed is slow
(low value), high resolution (640x480) or frame rate could cause very bad video quality.
5. Frame rate – the video frame display rate. Higher value means faster movement and continuity in the
video display.
6. Favor/Preference – choose between “Video motion” and “Image quality”. When the real bandwidth is not
enough for the selected “Internet speed”, the system will need to degrade the video motion or image
quality. This selection will decide if the user want to maintain the “video motion” or “image quality” when
the internet speed is not good enough.
7. Brightness – the brightness of the video, lower value means darker display.
8. Sharpness – the sharpness of the video, higher value means sharper video.
9. Low light sensitivity – The low light sensitivity could be normal, high or very high. When the low light
sensitivity is high, the system could see better video clearance under low light situation, but the moving
object will not be very clear under this low light environment. Under very dark environment, set to “very
high” will get better video clearance. The default value of this setting is “high”.
10. Video color – choose between “colored” and “black & white”.
11. Video flip – can do “normal” or “flip” video display, this is needed if the IP Camera is hung on the ceiling or
wall.
12. Outdoor/Indoor video – for better video display quality, modify this setting when taking indoor or outdoor
video. The default setting is “Outdoor video”, in most cases; this is also ok for indoor usage. Under some
special cases, there could be some strip lines on the video display when the IP Camera is taking indoor
video. In this situation, change the setting to “Indoor video” will solve the problem. Please also be noticed
that in “Indoor video” setting, the video display of outdoor view is very vague. For indoor usage, if there is
strong sun light into the room, please select the “Indoor + sun light” choice.
13. Enable/disable audio microphone – you can enable or disable the audio microphone on the IP Camera. If
disable, there will be no voice on the LiveView video viewing.
14. Enable/disable time display on video – if enabled, the date/time of the system will be displayed on the
left-upper corner of the video.
When this modification is “Save & Apply”-ed, it works immediately, but all the connected video viewing users
will be disconnected.
