Turn the Video Buffer function On / Off. The Video Buffer function makes the streaming more smooth in
unsteady network environment, but might cause a little delay in live viewing.
5.4 Image Setup
The tool bar can be adjusted to optimize video Brightness, Contrast, Saturation, Sharpness and
Exposure.
5.4.1 Brightness
The value range is 0~99. The higher value the brightness is, the brighter the image is.
5.4.2 Contrast
The value range is 0~99. The contrast is a measure of a display system, defined as the ratio of white to
black that the system is capable of producing. The higher value the contrast is, the more delicate of color
you can have.
5.4.3 Saturation
The value range is 0~99. The saturation of a color is determined by a combination of light intensity and
how much it is distributed across the spectrum of different wavelengths. The higher value the saturation
is, the more colorful the image will be.
5.4.4 Sharpness
The value range is 0~99. It applies image processing techniques to adjust the sharpness of live view.
However, the higher the value is, more the noise is.
5.4.5 Exposure

Half duplex: Select it for communication in both directions, but only one direction at a time
(not simultaneously). It means one party begins receiving a signal, it must wait for the
transmitter to stop transmitting, before replying. Therefore, once one party speak, he can’t
hear any voice from the other party, just like the communication by radio set.
Video Clip Format: Select RECORDING compression format H.264 or MPEG-4.
MPEG-4: MPEG-4 has the advantage of sending a lower volume of date per time unit
across the network (bit-rate) compared to Motion JPEG and therefore provides a relatively
high image quality at a lower bit-rate (bandwidth usage).
H.264: H.264 provides higher compression rate than MPEG-4. Thus, H.264 can decrease
the bandwidth usage and further apply on 3G. However, H.264 will occupy more system
resources than MPEG-4. As long as the operating system appears operating difficulties
under H.264 format, please change to select MPEG-4.
