If a video camera supports multistreaming, you can select the quality of the video stream that you want for display in viewing tiles.

If the video camera is not configured for multiple video streams, this action is not available (see The Video Camera Object).

To select video stream quality:

  1. In the context menu of the viewing tile, select Select quality.
  2. Select the quality of video stream that you want for display in the viewing tile.

    Description

    Auto

    A video stream will be chosen automatically depending on the size of the viewing tile (with account of digital image zoom). If the size of the viewing tile (in pixels) is larger than the resolution of the low-resolution video stream, the viewing tile switches to the high-resolution video stream.

    High

    A high-quality video stream is used for display in the viewing tile (see The Video Camera Object).

    Low

    A low-quality video stream is used for display in the viewing tile (see The Video Camera Object). The low-resolution video stream will be displayed in an inactive viewing tile in the same layout. When the user selects a viewing tile, the video stream of the necessary resolution is automatically requested from the camera.

    Automatic video stream selection (enabled by the Auto option) is unavailable if automatic resolution selection has been set for any streamĀ (see The Video Camera Object).

Selection of video stream quality in the viewing tile is now complete.
