V-stream encoding 
If the available bandwidth is limited, you can remotely view several channels in 
real time with one stream over the web browser or CMS (Client Management 
System), such as TruVision navigator, using the V-stream encoding option (“V” 
stands for “virtual”). When enabled, you can see the output from the cameras on 
a remote client monitor in one stream. 
Note: It is not recommended to use the V-stream feature when a CVBS monitor 
is used as a main monitor because the CVBS main monitor and the V-stream 
use the same output. 
To enable V-streaming: 
1.  Click the Video Schedule icon   in the menu toolbar. 
2.  Select Encoding > V-stream Encoding. 
3.  Check Enable V-stream Encoding.  
4.  Select the desired settings for frame rate, and maximum bit rate (Kbps). 
Note: The maximum bit rate option is set to “General” only. 
5.  Click Apply to save the settings.
