Adjusting Average Bitrate

 Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Some camera models do not yield the best setting when DW Spectrum tries to configure a target bitrate, resulting in poor image quality. If this is the case you can adjust the bitrate calculation for the device manually.

! IMPORTANT! This setting will significantly increase bitrate. Use only if the picture quality is noticeably poor.

To adjust bitrate

1.Open the Camera Settings > Expert tab.

2.Check Calculate bitrate per GOP instead of bitrate per second.

3.Click Apply or OK when finished. To discard changes, click Cancel.

note Note: This setting is ignored when "Keep camera streams and profiles settings" is checked. See "Preventing DW Spectrum from Changing Manufacturer Settings".
