Database path
The most important item in the settings dialog is the database path setting.
You must set it to the directory that contains the surveillance database to
make the program work properly.
AVI file location
It sets the storing directory when you export AVI files. The exported AVI
files will be stored in the sub-directory under the directory you set here
with the name of the location you select.
Bitmap file location
It sets the directory to use the for snapshots when exported as bitmap
files. These exported bitmap files will be stored in the sub-directory under
the directory you set here with the name of the location you select.
AVI Frame rate
This setting changes the color depth of the exporting bitmap file. It is
suggested to use more than 16 bits color depth for the best picture quality.
AVI compression mode
Unlike the exporting of bitmap files, only 16 bits of color depth are used to
export the AVI file. During the AVI compression mode selection, you can
select one of the compression methods that your computer supports to
export the AVI file.
Alert window settings
There are three alert windows you can activate during using the monitor
program. In the playback program, you can choose whether these alert
windows will be shown or not. If you check one window, then you will see
that rectangle in green or red color shown in the displaying video sequence.
Modulation mode
The modulation mode should not be changed without knowledge of the
various modes . The quality of the video depends on how you recorded the
video sequence in the monitor program. If you select the wrong mode, the
video shown in the display area will become deformed. If you choose the
wrong modulation mode, you may open the settings dialog again, change
to the correct mode, and restart the playback program, It should then display
properly.
