To check productivity of video processing, do the following:

  1. Start the fps.exe utility (see Starting and shutting-down the Fps.exe utility).
  2. Select the video source.
  3. Set the check parameters.
  4. Run the check and read into its results.

Selecting the video source

The video source can be either an archive file or a video server archive recorded on specific cameras.

Note.

The field Video Source File is not required to run the check on an emulated pattern set of frames.

If the video source is an archive file, select it as follows:

  1. Click File and then double click the required file in the Windows standard Open box (1).

  2. The full name of the selected file is displayed in the Video source field (2).

If the video source is a video server archive, make sure the Intellect is running on that server and all the required cameras are created in the hardware tree before performing the check.

Select the archive video source as follows:

  1. Click Server (1). The Cameras dialog box opens.
  2. In the IP field, specify the IP address of the Intellect video server (2).
  3. Click Get (3). If connection with the server is established, the Cameras field displays the list of cameras.
  4. Set the check boxes next to the cameras to check performance using their archive (4) or set the Select all check box to select all the cameras in the list (5).
  5. Click OK (6).
  6. The selected cameras are added into the Video source field (7).

Setting the check parameters

Set the parameters of performance check as follows:

  1. Activate Compression check checkbox to check how many fps  the given computer can compress (1).
  2. Activate Decompression check checkbox to check how many fps  the given computer can decompress(2).
  3. Select the Copy for stream check box to create a separate copy of each stream file in the RAM in order to avoid conflicts during the check (3). This function increases memory consumption when running the fps.exe utility.
  4. Select the required compressor version from the drop-down list Codec (4).

  5. Enter the required number of emulated cameras in the field Channels amount (5).

    Note.

    This setting is actual only with emulation of pattern set of channels.

  6. In the Number of CPU cores in use field specify the number of CPU cores to be used for performance check (6).

  7. Select the required value of frames compression from the dropdown list Quality (inversely to compression level) (7).
  8. When necessary, set the directory where frames extracted from the video would be unzipped by clicking  next to the Jpeg images storage folder field (8).

Running the check and reading into its results

Click the Start button to run video processing tester (1).

As a result, parameters of video processing productivity will be displayed in the title bar of the utility window (2).

Productivity parameter

Description of parameter

Compression

total number of frames that can be compressed in one second

Decompression

total number of frames that can be decompressed in one second

Ratio

If the Jpeg images storage folder is selected, the frames for testing video processing will be recorded to the selected .jpeg files storage folder.

The example of the emulated frame is shown below:

To stop the testing process, click the Stop button (3).
