3.6. Video Settings
The IP CAM is designed to provide high quality video for viewing from CamView
software. In this page, you cam modify some settings related to the video viewing:
1. Password(play video) – this is the password needed for viewing the video from
the CamView software. Together with the IP CAM ID, you can view the video of
this IP CAM anywhere in the world through the Internet.
2. Internet speed – this is the Internet bandwidth of your network environment.
Higher value will generate higher video quality. But if your internet connection can
not provide more bandwidth than the specified value, the video quality could
degrade. So, please key in a value that is lower than your internet bandwidth.
3. Select resolution & frame rate automatically – you can let the system select the
suitable video resolution and frame rate automatically for you. The selection is
based on the “Internet speed” value. This is the recommended default setting.
4. Resolution – there are three choices : 160x120, 320x240 and 640x480. If you
decide to choose the value manually, you can choose one of the three values.
But, please be noticed that if the Internet speed is slow(low value), high
resolution(640x480) or frame rate could cause very bad video quality.
5. Frame rate – the video frame display rate. Higher value means faster movement
and continuity in the video display.
6. Favor/Preference – choose between “Video motion” and “Image quality”. When
the real bandwidth is not enough for the selected “Internet speed”, the system will
need to degrade the video motion or image quality. This selection will decide if
the user want to maintain the “video motion” or “image quality” when the internet
speed is not good enough.
7. Brightness – the brightness of the video, lower value means darker display.
8. Sharpness – the sharpness of the video, higher value means sharper video.
9. Low light sensitivity – The low light sensitivity could be normal, high or very high.
When the low light sensitivity is high, the system could see better video clearance
under low light situation, but the moving object will not be very clear under this
low light environment. Under very dark environment, set to “very high” will get
better video clearance. The default value of this setting is “high”.
10. Video color – choose between “colored” and “black&white”.
11. Video flip – can do “normal” or “flip” video display, this is needed if the ip camera
is hung on the ceiling or wall.
12. Outdoor/Indoor video – for better video display quality, modify this setting when
taking indoor or outdoor video. The default setting is “Outdoor video”, in most
cases, this is also ok for indoor usage. Under some special cases, there could be
