Hi there,
I am pretty new to the world of CCTV.
I recently helped to setup a HIK NVR DS-7616 NI-Q2/16P for a senior assisted home. We have 16 cameras, all run on the NVR PoE ports, 2MB.
The HDD is 4TB
I set the video quality for mainstream as per below:
Resolution: 1280 x 720P
Bitrate type: Variable
Video Quality: Medium (other options are lowest, lower, low, medium, higer, highest)
Frame rate: 15
Max bitrate: 768
Video encoding: H264 (default)
H.264+: OFF (other option is ON)
I have about 27 days of recording, which is pretty OK for what we need
But I just wonder, if that is OK for the best quality-storage ratio yet?
For the substream, I have the following:
Resolution: 640x360
Bitrate type: Variable
Video Quality: Medium (other options are lowest, lower, low, medium, higer, highest)
Frame rate: 10
Max bitrate: 255
Video encoding: H264 (default)
When I am using the HIKvison app (iVMS4500) to view the CCTV, often at 9-camera liveview at a time, then the app crashed with error not enough memory! Often after a reconfig, it worked again but it's annoyed.
Any idea as to what should be the max bitrate for the substream? Is there a way to check if the app is using the substream setting? (to ensure it does not use the mainstream)
Thank you all
