Streaming Settings Page Elements
Back: Saves the changes and returns you to the previously active touch panel page.
Connection Status icon: This visual display of the connection status allows the user to have a current visual update of
the panel’s connection status regardless of what page is currently active.
• A Lock only appears on the icon if the panel has established a connection with a currently
secured target Master (requiring a username and password).
Settings: • The Default Settings button sets the streaming video settings to their default values
(indicated in this table).
•The Undo Changes button disregards any changes made on the page since the last
settings were saved.
•The Save Settings button saves any changes made to the Video Setup page.
Video Settings: • The Sharpness button toggles the Interpolate (Sharpness) feature.
Default = On.
•The Interlace button toggles the Interlacing feature. Default = On.
Video: This read-only field displays the video stream information (Video Streaming format and
resolution).
• The properties of this incoming (detected) stream is given as: Video Codec and
Resolution.
• An example would be: MPEG2 720x480. This means that the incoming video is an
MPEG2 video stream with resolution 720x480.
Codec • Supported MPEG codecs: MPEG-2 or MPEG-4
• MPEG-2 is typically used to encode audio and video for broadcast quality signals. The
MPEG-2 is enhanced by using MPEG-1's audio (MP2) component to allow the coding of
audio programs with more than two channels. Video quality is noticeably higher with
MPEG-2 vs MPEG-4.
• MPEG-4 is currently used as a standard for the web (streaming media) and CD
distribution, conversational (videophone), and broadcast television. The biggest difference
between these two encoding types is that MPEG-4 uses about 1/3 to 1/2 less bandwidth
for the same quality of video.
