8.2 Network Camera Settings

connected to the LAN or WAN. VIGIL Server currently supports several
types of network cameras.

To setup or change a network camera, check the Network Camera box,
then click the Settings… button. This will open the Network Camera Set-
tings
window.

Note: The Network Camera feature disables the physical cam-
era input on the video capture card.

Warning: Due to the substantial overhead associated with HTTP, attempting to record HTTP camera
feeds over the Internet is not recommended. High speed LAN or WAN configurations are recommended
for HTTP camera use. If the network bandwidth is insufficient, the message Signal Loss will be displayed
in place of the live feed.
