U and V
Adjusts the U and V color difference signals used in YUV color format for the video footage. Note that not all cam-
eras use a YUV color format, in which case, adjusting the Saturation U slider will adjust the color saturation while the
Saturation V slider will have no effect.
Resolution
Select a recording resolution from the drop-down menu. Options range from 352x240 to 704x480 resolution. If a net-
work camera is enabled on the channel, this option will not be available.
Recording
Use the drop-down menu to enable or disable recording of the selected camera. If the selected camera is not avail-
able, Inactive will be displayed here.
Pre Buffer
The number of seconds of footage to record prior to a motion detection or alarm event. For JPEG Camera streams the
recommended setting is 1. For H264 Camera streams it is recommended to set the pre buffer to the key frame rate.
Speeds
Opens the Recording Speed window. The recording speed can
be set individually for Constant, Motion and Alarm Recording
Mode. Use the drop-down menu to select the desired number of
frames per second (fps).
Note: Network cameras will often record and play
back at a slower rate than what was set in the Record-
ing Speed window, depending on the bandwidth and
camera.
Reset
‘Cam#’ to
Default
Returns the camera settings to their default values.
8.1.1 Advanced Settings
In the Advanced Settings window, the cameras are grouped into Bank tabs that represent the physical camera banks in the VIGIL
Server. This allows the user to maximize the capture resolution and recording speeds for each camera bank. When the number of FPS
is changed in the Advanced Settings window, it is applied to all recording modes.
