Stream Setting Options

[Present] There are five pre-programmed stream profiles for quick set-up. Please choose the one according to your
bandwidth.

[Image size]
Image resolutions available are as follows:

Y-cam Cube: 640 x 480(VGA), 320 x 240(QVGA), 160 x 120 (QQVGA). The mobile stream has a fixed image size of
176x144.
Y-cam Cube HD 720: 1280x720 (HD720p), 768x432, 512x288, 256x144). The mobile stream has a fixed image size of
176x144.
Y-cam Cube HD 1080: 1920x1080 (HD1080p), 1280x720 (HD720p), 768x432, 512x288, 256x144. The mobile stream has a
fixed image size of 176x144.


[Frame rate]
Twelve options: 1/2/3/4/5/6/8/10/15/20/25/30 frames per second (fps). The frame rate is automatically
determined by the camera and this depends on the network bandwidth available at the time. This frame rate setting
imposes the maximum frame rate that the camera will transmit.

[H.264/MPEG4 bit rate] Select H.264/MPEG4 bit rate.

These settings determine the image quality, however higher bitrates

require greater bandwidth. Please select the appropriate settings according to your connection speed and network
traffic. If you are experiencing jerky video it may be necessary to decrease the bitrate. For the Mobile Stream, the
bitrates are listed a lot lower but retain the same principle.

[MJPEG Quality]
This sets the quality of the video when viewing the camera using Motion JPEG (without audio). It can
be from 20 to 100 where 100 is the best quality.

[JPEG snapshot Quality]
The quality of the snapshot saved using Live View page (Internet Explorer only). It also affects
the quality of the snapshot to be uploaded to an FTP Server. It can be from 20 to 100 where 100 is the best quality.

[Audio]
Select or disable the audio bit rate.

[Authentication]
Select or disable MPEG4 RTSP authentication. RealPlayer can be used to view the live stream from the
Y-cam, but RealPlayer does not support authentication, so the authentication of MPEG4 RTSP should be disabled. This
however may expose the camera to unauthorised access. QuickTime Player, on the other hand, supports authentication
and can be used to view the live stream.


Clicking on the name of the stream will display the various paths to the particular video stream.
