5.3.3 Record Quality
Select quality level for recording audio/video. There are pre-defined values of Best quality
768kbps  High 640kbps  Mid 512kbps  Low 384kbps, or alternatively, you can
define your own recording quality (kBit/s). Pressing the [>>] button under the User Defined
option will bring up another window in which you can enter the desired values using the
numeric keypad, and confirm your input by pressing OK or reset the entered values by
pressing Clear.
5.3.4 Record Frame Rate
In this section you can choose the recording frame rate (frames per second). The pre-
defined choice is Full (30/25fps depending on whether it is NTSC/PAL)  15 fps  7 fps
 3 fps  1 fps or user defined. The lower the value, the less life-like and more jerky the
recorded movements will be. On the other hand though, a lower frame rate can save a lot of
HDD space. Make your choice depending on the precision with which you want to follow
the events unfolding before your cameras.
Pressing the [>>] button, which appears under the User Defined option, will bring up
another window in which you can enter the desired frame rate values using the numeric
keypad or clear the entered values by pressing button Clear.
Since the maximum value for the frame rate is either 30 or 25 fps depending on the
encoding system, your choice may be within the limits of 1 to 30/25. Thus, even if you enter
a higher value, the resulting frame rate will be kicked back to the maximum allowed value.
To confirm your input, press OK.
5.3.5 Record Source
This option allows you to select whether the signal coming from the source will include
audio. Thus, it offers two options for recording: “Video” and “Video and Audio”.
When you select the option of motion detection recording,
in order for the actual recording to happen, it is necessary
to set the motion detection sensitivity and area. Please refer
to Section 5.4.6 Motion Detection Settings for details.
When alarm recording is selected, please set the alarm
triggering settings beforehand. See Section 5.6.3 Event
