Using the Setup Screen Configuring Audio, Video, and Camera Controls 6 Configuring Audio, Video, and Camera Controls Click the Audio/Video/Camera folder icon to display the Video, Audio, and Camera Control sections. Defining Image Settings The Video folder has three sections that define image Settings. This camera supports dual-stream. It provides two setting for video streams, and one setting for audio. Video Quality Settings For Stream 1/2-Set two streams for the PVC300 PTZ Internet Camera for different viewing devices. For example, set the PVC300 PTZ Internet Camera to a smaller frame size and a lower bit rate for viewing on mobile phones. Or, set the PVC300 PTZ Internet Camera to a larger video size and a higher bit rate for viewing on web browsers. • Mode The PVC300 PTZ Internet Camera offers two choices of video compression standards for real-time viewing: MPEG-4 and JPEG. If MPEG-4 is selected, it is streamed in RTP encapsulation over UDP. There are four dependent parameters provided in MPEG-4 mode for video performance adjustment. • Resolution The video resolutions are selectable at the following settings: 640x480, 320x240, and 176x144. Note that a larger frame resolution takes up more bandwidth. • Video quality A complex scene generally produces larger file size, meaning that higher bandwidth will be needed for data transmission. Therefore, if Constant bit rate is selected, the bandwidth utilization is fixed at a selected level, resulting in mutable video quality performances. The bit rates are selectable at the following rates: 20Kbps, 30Kbps, 40Kbps, 50Kbps, 64Kbps, 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 768Kbps, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 3Mbps and 4Mbps. If Fixed quality is selected, all frames are transmitted with the same quality and bandwidth utilization is unpredictable. The video quality is selectable: Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed and Excellent. Cisco Small Business Administration Guide for the Model PVC300 PTZ Internet Camera with Audio and PoE 45

Control
sections.
Defining Image Settings
The Video folder has three sections that define image Settings. This camera
supports dual-stream. It provides two setting for video streams, and one setting
for audio.
Video Quality Settings For Stream 1/2
—Set two streams for the PVC300 PTZ
Internet Camera for different viewing devices. For example, set the PVC300 PTZ
Internet Camera to a smaller frame size and a lower bit rate for viewing on mobile
phones. Or, set the PVC300 PTZ Internet Camera to a larger video size and a
higher bit rate for viewing on web browsers.
Mode
The PVC300 PTZ Internet Camera offers two choices of video compression
standards for real-time viewing: MPEG-4 and JPEG. If MPEG-4 is selected, it
is streamed in RTP encapsulation over UDP. There are four dependent
parameters provided in MPEG-4 mode for video performance adjustment.
Resolution
The video resolutions are selectable at the following settings: 640x480,
320x240, and 176x144. Note that a larger frame resolution takes up more
bandwidth.
Video quality
A complex scene generally produces larger file size, meaning that higher
bandwidth will be needed for data transmission. Therefore, if Constant bit
rate is selected, the bandwidth utilization is fixed at a selected level,
resulting in mutable video quality performances. The bit rates are
selectable at the following rates: 20Kbps, 30Kbps, 40Kbps, 50Kbps,
64Kbps, 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 768Kbps, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 3Mbps
and 4Mbps.
If Fixed quality is selected, all frames are transmitted with the same quality
and bandwidth utilization is unpredictable. The video quality is selectable:
Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed and Excellent.
