5.5.3 Configure Recording Parameter

Steps

Configure recording parameters.

Main Stream

Main stream refers to the primary stream that affects data recorded to the hard disk drive and will directly determine your video quality and image size. Comparing with the substream, the main stream provides a higher quality video with higher resolution and frame rate.

Sub-Stream

Sub-stream is a second codec that runs alongside the mainstream. It allows you to reduce the outgoing internet bandwidth without sacrificing your direct recording quality. Sub-stream is often exclusively used by smartphone applications to view live video. Users with limited internet speeds may benefit most from this setting.

Frame Rate

Frame rate refers to how many frames are captured each second. A higher frame rate is advantageous when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains image quality throughout.

Resolution

Image resolution is a measure of how much detail a digital image can hold: the greater the resolution, the greater the level of detail. Resolution can be specified as the number of pixelcolumns (width) by the number of pixel-rows (height), e.g.,1024×768.

Bitrate

The bit rate (in Kbit/s or Mbit/s) is often referred to as speed, but actually defines the number of bits/time unit and not distance/time unit.

C® Note

Higher resolution, frame rate, and bitrate provide you better video quality, but it also requires more internet bandwidth and uses more storage space on the hard disk drive.

Configure Recording Parameter

Main stream refers to the primary stream that affects data recorded to the hard disk drive and will directly determine your video quality and image size. Comparing with the sub-stream, the main stream provides a higher quality video with higher resolution and frame rate.

Sub-stream is a second codec that runs alongside the mainstream. It allows you to reduce the outgoing internet bandwidth without sacrificing your direct recording quality. Sub-stream is often exclusively used by smartphone applications to view live video. Users with limited internet speeds may benefit most from this setting.

Steps

Go to Configuration ^ Record ^ Parameter to configure camera main stream and sub-stream parameters.

Configure recording parameters.

Frame Rate

Frame rate refers to how many frames are captured each second. A higher frame rate is advantageous when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains image quality throughout.

Resolution

Image resolution is a measure of how much detail a digital image can hold: the greater the resolution, the greater the level of detail. Resolution can be specified as the number of pixelcolumns (width) by the number of pixel-rows (height), e.g.,1024×768.

Bitrate

The bit rate (in kbit/s or Mbit/s) is often referred to as speed, but actually defines the number of bits/time unit and not distance/time unit.

Enable H.264+

The H.264+ mode helps to ensure the high video quality with a lowered bitrate. It can effectively reduce the need of bandwidth and HDD storage space.

Audio Source

The audio input signal source. If you select Audio Source as Camera Audio, it will transmit audio via coaxial cable, and make the local audio input signal unavailable. Ensure the camera supports to transmit audio via coaxial cable before selecting Audio Source as Camera Audio.

iViewer installation and user guide

iViewer installation and user guide

When I playback the NVR recording file on the iViewer, it can not show the video. But, if I playback the video on the IE browser, it is workable.

Answer

iViewer gets current time from mobile phone to play videos. When you open NVR web UI, NVR will show the time according to customer setup and play videos according to the time. If NVR time sets to 2018 and the time of mobile phone is 2019, iViewer will not find videos in 2019 but find videos in 2018 when iViewer plays NVR recorded videos.

Question

What to do if iViewer doesn’t show some cameras of VAST? (set logical tree in VAST)

Answer

Question

When I add new substation to VIVOTEK CMS, how can I see it on iViewer at the same time?

Answer

Cannot visualize 7000 series cameras’ streaming when using codec JPEG

Question

After upgrading iViewer(iOS) to version 3.12.2, I cannot get IP7330 camera streaming.
But when using iVeiwer for Android, it works well.The following shows an iPhone using iViewer 3.12.2 to connect to IP7330.

Answer

This issue appears because iViewer(iOS)3.12.2 removed the server push mechanism but iViewer(Android) still keeps it.
Therefore, iViewer(iOS) cannot get the 7000 series streaming when using codec JPEG but iViewer(Android) works well.In order to resolve this issue, please change the camera codec from JPEG to MPEG-4.

ADDING 3RD PARTY CAMERAS TO A uniview RECORDER

M.Salih ASLAN — Thu, 20 Oct 2022 18:12:19 +0000

LOCATING CAMERAS AND SETTING IP ADDRESS

All network devices are configured for either a fixed or automatic IP address. A fixed address is static. It
has been manually configured and in most cases needs to be changed to match the network where the
device is going to be connected. An automatic IP address is dynamic (DHCP). It is one that the device
obtains from the network where it will be connected. Which address is best is determined by the
network where it’s going to be connected and is beyond the scope of this tech note. In most cases when
a 3rd party camera is connected to a uniview tec NVR it should be using a static IP address. To change an
IP address, most camera manufactures will make their own software for locating their cameras on a
network. Using their program is always best since it should have optimal control as well as have the
ability to change the IP address of the camera. For uniview tec cameras we have a similar program which
is Guard Tool and is available for downloaded from the univiewtechnology.com website. It can scan the
network where the computer is connected and find uniview tec devices as well as many 3
rd party devices.

Load More : [message title=”Load More” title_color=”#000000″ title_bg=”#dddddd” title_icon=”” content_color=”#000000″ content_bg=”#ffffff” id=””]Uniview Software Firmware Download[/message]
Guard Tool might also be able change the IP address of some 3rd party cameras.

ADDING CAMERAS
Some camera manufacturers are supported by uniview tec Plug-and-Play and will automatically add to
the NVR. If they do not automatically add, then cameras will need to be manually added. Adding your
cameras can be done directly at the recorder or by browsing into the recorder. For this example we are
adding cameras over the web browser.

Browse to the recorder’s IP address and login. Open
the Setup page and navigate to the Camera >
Camera menu. This menu is where you can add your
cameras to the recorder, change the channel
positions from the built in PoE Plug-and-Play to
manual add.

Highlight one of the channels and then click the
Modify button at the top of the menu.

Change the Add Mode from Plug-and-Play to IP Address. Click on Search
and the Search screen will come up. If your camera is listed select it and
click OK.

Not all 3rd party cameras are supported so it
might not have been discovered and will need to
be manually entered.

Ensure that the IP address, user name, password, and
HTTP port are correct.

In most cases when adding a camera select ONVIF as
the protocol.

Once done with adding the camera click Save.
Note: Extended Transmission is for uniview tec camera
only and should not be turned on for 3rd party cameras.
The NVR will try to communicate with the camera. Monitor
the camera status icon.

Once successful communication is established the icon will
turn green.

It might take a couple of minutes for the camera and NVR to communicate.
So click on Refresh at the top corner of the menu to update the screen.
Once the icon goes green you are done and the camera is connected.
If the icon does not go green hover the mouse pointer over the status icon
and it will provide more information, to assist with troubleshooting (see
below).

REASONS WHY A CAMERA MIGHT NOT CONNECT

1. The protocol was not set to ONVIF
2. The camera is not ONVIF compliant (preferably profile S and above). Please refer to Onvif.org.
For cameras that don’t support Onvif camera registration refer to Adding Cameras Using RTSP
Stream
3. The IP address was entered incorrectly
4. The HTTP port was entered incorrectly
5. The camera is not compatible with the recorder. This can sometimes be resolved by updating
the recorder and camera firmware to the latest revision.
6. The network is not properly setup at the local level. This means that the IP address of any device
could be on the incorrect subnet, the IP is conflicting with another device, or the network is not
properly wired / connected.

ADDING CAMERAS USING RTSP STREAM
In some instances you may have to add a 3rd party camera using the RTSP
stream. To add a camera using an RTSP stream, from the camera menu
select the channel you would like to add and click Modify.

Once on the Modify page you will want to change the add mode to IP
Address and the Protocol to Custom. You will also need to enter the IP
Address and the login credentials for the camera. As well, you will need
to define the protocol settings. To do this you will need to click the
Protocol button.

On the Protocol page you will need to fill in the information
for the RTSP stream of the camera you are adding. One
method of obtaining this is with the program Onvif Device
Manager. In some cases the best source will be from the

camera manufacturer.
After entering the information click the Save button on the
protocol page.

Note: If you are adding multiple cameras of the same model, you can make your resource path generic by inserting and where indicated on the RTSP stream. This will allow you to use the same Custom definition for those cameras and not define them individually. Once you return to the camera Modify page click the Save button.

This should add the camera as a RTSP stream. Monitor the camera status icon. If the camera does not connect you may want to test the RTSP stream. We suggest testing with the program VLC Media Player to confirm that the RTSP is valid.

Note: RTSP does not support advanced functions like motion detection and PTZ control

Click [System]-[Digital]-[Channel Type] to enter the channel type setting interface. Please change DVR to IP mode or IP analog mode. After the mode is changed, the syetem will restart.

Please connect the DVR and the IP camera to the same router with ethernet cable respectively so that they are working under the same network. （If it is a Wi-Fi IP camera, it will connect to the router via Wi-Fi rather than via the ethernet cable.)

Please click [Search], select the camera, click [Add], input the password and then click “Apply”.

6. Please check the connection status. Click Exit. The live video appears.

If you find status is connected but there is still no image, please change the video standard or restart DVR to have a try.
