Setting the stream type

Video stream refers to the flow of network data between the device and the Web
browser interface. The higher the stream type specified in the Web browser, the
higher the video quality being viewed and recorded. When viewing video in a four-
screen layout, data is being transferred into four different streams, which can
overload a system with low bandwidth. We strongly recommend that you set your
stream type to Sub-stream to avoid overloading your network.

1. Click Configure on the navigation bar to display the Remote Configuration screen.
2. Click the Channel Configuration tab.
3. Select Sub-stream in the Type box.
4. Change the appropriate video quality settings.

Note:

We recommend that you do not change the frame type and iframe.

5. Click Save to save your changes.
