Functional Limitations on MPEG-4
VB-C500VD, VB-C500D and VB-C60 supports MPEG-4 format video in addition to JPEG format video.
However, this are several functional limitations as follows.
Live Viewing
The following video window settings become disabled, and the frame rate setting of the camera takes
effect.
Max. Live Frame Rate
Auto Adjust Frame Rate
Synchronization of audio and video is not guaranteed.
A message is displayed if you attempt to display 21 or more MPEG-4 video windows.
Video Recording
The recording frame rate cannot be set for the following recording modes.
Constant recording
Motion detection recording
Sensor recording
The [
Reduce recording frame rate when disk is under high load
] setting in the Storage Server Settings
Tool becomes disabled.
•[
Record Now
] only supports the JPEG format, and cannot record in MPEG-4 format.
Playback
Although the following controls can be used when playing back video recorded in MPEG-4 format,
the rewind and nudge back controls do not function.
Specify playback time using the timeline
Begin playback from the live event viewing window and event search window
Pause, fast forward, nudge forward, previous event, next event
If a schedule that had previously been recording in MPEG-4 format is switched to recording in JPEG
format, when rewind playback from the JPEG format time range enters the MPEG-4 time range,
although the rewind playback continues, the video is not displayed and an error stating "No
Recorded Video." is displayed.
If you attempt to save a time range of recorded video that spans multiple recording schedules, only
the video recorded in the oldest schedule is saved.
The MPEG-4 format video recorded using this software cannot be played back in other software.
