Recording Quality: Allows you to adjust the video quality in 5 levels. Higher value equals to
lower compression rate.
Resolution Button: Click on the arrow icon next to the Recording Quality slide bar to switch
between the available resolutions.
Frame/Sec: Allow you to adjust camera’s recording frame rate. There are three options
available: Smart, High, and Low.
[Smart]: When Smart Recording Option is selected, the system will distribute as
many frame rates as possible to the camera where motion occurs.
[High]: System will distribute high percentage of frames (not a definite frame
number) to the selected camera while the other cameras will share rest of
the frame rates. Assuming that all cameras are in action, selecting [High]
ensures this camera always receive higher frame rate than the rest of the
cameras. Effect can be seen in both preview mode and record mode.
[Low]: System will distribute low percentage of frame rates to the selected camera.
Assuming that all cameras are in action, certain cameras are of least
importance. System can be set [Low] in order to allow frame rate to go to
more important cameras.
