    What to do if the Epiphan Security Camera stream won't play?
    • J
      jeanwrightJul 26, 2025
      If your stream won't play in your media player or browser, first check the LEDs on the System to ensure data is being received. The green LED should be illuminated and the red LED blinking. If the broadcast is being recorded, the blue LED blinks too. Verify that the Stream Type matches with the media player used and that you have the correct url or SDP file for the player. If you still cannot see the stream, try disabling your local computer firewall. If the issue is still not resolved, contact Epiphan Support at support@epiphan.com.

    How to improve frames per second on epiphan VGADVI Broadcaster Security Camera?
    • C
      Cheryl CookJul 31, 2025
      To enhance the frames per second (fps) on your Epiphan Security Camera, consider these suggestions: Increase the Limit frame rate value and/or decrease the Bitrate value in the Stream Setup menu. Reduce the number of actions happening simultaneously on the device (i.e. if streaming, recording, and copying files, consider waiting to copy files until after streaming and recording are complete). You can also enter a low negative value (i.e. -5) in the Frame Grabber's Vertical Shift field.

    Why does the epiphan VGADVI Broadcaster Security Camera stream keep interrupting?
    • C
      chris14Aug 4, 2025
      If the stream interrupts or the image breaks up on your Epiphan Security Camera, consider the following to diagnose the issue: Ensure the source resolution is used as the output or recorded resolution, as up-scaling and down-scaling can affect picture quality. Increase the Bitrate value and/or decrease the Limit frame rate value in the Stream Setup menu. Check network settings including filters, routers and application settings, as packet loss can result in stream failure.
