If necessary, you can change the detection tool parameters. The list of parameters is given in the table:

ParameterValueDescription
Object features
Record mask to archiveYesBy default, mask is recorded to the archive. To disable the parameter, select the No value
No
Record objects trackingYes

By default, object tracks are recorded to the database. To disable the parameter, select the No value.

Note
titleAttention!

To obtain metadata, video is decompressed and analyzed, which results in a heavy load on the Server and limits the number of cameras that you can use on it.

No
Video streamMain stream

If the camera supports multistreaming, select the stream for which detection is needed. Selecting a low quality video stream reduces the load on the Server.

Note
titleAttention!

To ensure the correct display of streams on a multi-stream camera, all video streams must have the same frame aspect ratio.

Other
EnableYesBy default, the detection tool is enabled. To disable, select the No value
No
NameMotion detectionEnter the detection tool name or leave the default name
Decode key framesYes

By default, the parameter is disabled. This parameter reduces the load on the Server, but at the same time the detection quality decreases.

If you want to decode key frames only, select the Yes value. We recommend enabling this parameter for "blind" (without video image display) Servers, on which you want to perform detection.

 For the MJPEG codec decoding isn’t relevant, as each frame is considered a key frame.

Note
titleAttention!

The Number of frames processed per second and Decode key frames parameters are interrelated.

If a local Client isn’t connected to the Server, the following rules work for remote Clients:

  • If the key frame rate is less than the value specified in the Number of frames processed per second field, the detection tool will work by key frames.
  • If the key frame rate is greater than the value specified in the Number of frames processed per second field, the detection will be performed according to the set period.

If a local Client is connected to the Server, the detection tool will always work according to the set period. After disconnecting the local Client, the above rules will be relevant again.

No
Decoder modeAutoSelect a processing resource for decoding video streams. When you select a GPU, a stand-alone graphics card takes priority (when decoding with Nvidia NVDEC chips). If there is no appropriate GPU, the decoding will use the Intel Quick Sync Video technology. Otherwise, CPU resources will be used for decoding

TypeMotion detectionName of the detection tool type (non-editable field)
Advanced settings
Alarm end delay10Enter the time in seconds during which the generation of an event won't stop after the motion stops. If motion is detected again within the specified time, it will be considered as one event
Camera positionWallTo eliminate false events from the detection tool when using a fisheye camera (see Configuring fisheye cameras), select the correct device location
Ceiling
Motion maskYes

By default, motion mask is enabled.

Image Modified

  • If motion doesn't exceed the Sensitivity: Contrast and Sensitivity: Size parameters, the mask cells are colored green.
  • If motion generates an event, the cells are colored red.

To disable the parameter, select the No value.

No
Object trackingYes

By default, the parameter is disabled. Select the Yes value to operate the detection sub-tools, and to display tracks and parameters (width and height as a percentage of the frame width or height and color) of tracking objects in the preview window:

No
Basic settings
Sensitivity: Contrast12

Specify the values of sensitivity to contrast and object size depending on the scene in the frame:

  • Sensitivity: Contrast. The value must be in the range [0, 20]
  • Sensitivity: Size. The value must be in the range [0, 20]

By default, the values of medium sensitivity are used. These values are recommended for most scenes:

  • Sensitivity: Contrast—12.
  • Sensitivity: Size—9.

If objects are far away and small in size, the maximum sensitivity is required. Recommended values:

  • Sensitivity: Contrast—16.
  • Sensitivity: Size—10.

If camera is located indoors with a distance to objects of about four meters, the minimum sensitivity is required. Recommended values:

  • Sensitivity: Contrast—8.
  • Sensitivity: Size—8.

Sensitivity: Size

9

By default, the entire frame is a detection area. If necessary, you can specify one or more areas within which no detection will be performed (see Configuring a skip area).
