Step by Step Instructions

1. Click on Camera then Video Parameters. Table below clarifies the meaning of each option.

Coding Strategy	*Standard (uses basic H.264 or H.265 for video compression. This is recommended for general usage.) *Smart Codec (improves compression efficiency by reducing bitrate while maintaining image quality, especially in static scenes.) *AI Codec (focuses on prioritizing human and vehicle targets during encoding.)
Record Type	*Continuous (ensures uninterrupted video capture, providing a complete record of all activities.) *Motion Detection (starts capturing only when motion is detected.) *Alarm (triggers recording based on alarms.)
Encoding Model	Types of video compression such as H.264 and H.265
Resolution	Select a resolution matching the camera's specifications.
Frame Rate (fps)	Number of video frames captured or displayed per second.
Bitrate Type	*CBR (Constant Bit Rate - Maintains a fixed bit rate throughout the video stream, regardless of scene complexity.) *VBR (Variable Bit Rate - Adjusts the bit rate dynamically based on the complexity of the scene.)
Image Quality	Image quality rated 1 (lowest) to 6 (highest), but may be unadjustable depending on the recorder.
Bit Rate (Kb/S)	amount of data processed per unit of time in a video stream which determines the quality and size of the video.
Audio	Switch to enable or disable audio recording on the recorder.
Audio Encoding	Types of audio compression such as PCM, G.711A, G.711Mu, and AAC.
Sampling Rate	During audio encoding, the analog sound wave (e.g., voices, ambient noise) is sampled at regular intervals to create a digital representation.
