DSS-1000 conforms to the display standard of composite and 1080p HDMI monitors.
Therefore, to reserve as much computing power for DSS-1000 as possible, only up to 2
megapixels H.264 video stream can be displayed on the Local Live View. A black screen
with a message will appear for channels using other codecs or those with higher resolution.
Decoding Limitation
Depending on the video stream resolution, DSS-1000 automatically adjusts the frame rate of the
stream in order to achieve smooth video performance as well as support the most number of
channels as possible. For example, when viewing 9 channels with 1920 x 1080 resolution in a 9-
channel mode, DSS-1000 automatically switches the frame rate to 12 fps on each camera
