or is it that simple in total? I am lost and worried that they may steer our ownership in a direction where they really don't know what they are talking about. Is there more to it from another angle that I don't understand. ![]() I have a feeling they don't have the cam configured in a way and/or in a scene that is giving good data. They said the testing (after one day) was not spitting out that much data in the high stream. And, they are talking about using the high stream (less compressed stream) from a 5mp Acti E38A to remotely monitor. What bothers me is their potential lack of knowledge by thinking I have a lot. Step Three: Click on the network camera you want to pair, and your device should now be connected. My understanding is that we would need dual stream to remotely monitor regardless of the VMS because of the bandwidth issue.īy they way, they came and asked me what I knew about dual stream because, "I seem to have a lot of IP cam knowledge." I don't, I know I don't. Step One: Open Windows Settings and choose Devices Step Two: Inside Bluetooth & other devices Everything else, click on Add device to discover network cameras connected to your LAN. Concern stemming from potentially using different than our usual cameras on the VMS platform we use. I do not know all of the offerings in the IP market but I thought dual stream was a fairly ubiquitous and beneficial option.The point of their whole conversation was that they were trying to tell the owner that dual stream cameras were no longer necessary. But, all that answer got me was an incredulous look from the group and one of the IT guys said there is more to it and maybe we don't need dual stream cameras. I was a monitor, monitoring manager, and then video review manager before I became a salesman. What you described is exactly what we do. The answer you gsave me is the answer I gave our team almost verbatim.however, I qualified it with, "This is my understanding of it." And, I thought I did understand dual stream as a fairly simple thing. I took and passed (got certified) one of the IP cam basics classes you taught. Its primary uses are to pull a video feed from a camera to an NVR, viewing software, or even home automation solutions. RTSP allows you to pull a live video stream from your camera and view it from different devices and programs. That's just one angle to this, and if there are more questions, just ask! RTSP stands for Real Time Streaming Protocol. ![]() They can do this only when needed, so 'dual streaming' helps make things more economical. Presumably, if some event is noticed remotely by the monitoring staff, they can download or review the 'higher quality' recording from onsite storage. Since local storage means bandwidth in not restricted by an ISP (and transported a comparatively short distance), it makes sense to use more bandwidth. The second stream (to the local storage recorder) is likely much more bandwidth, but higher FPS/lower compression/higher resolution. ![]() Since the live video is uploaded to the internet and to a remote site, smaller bandwidth means less expensive internet connections, etc. The first stream (the one flowing to your monitoring center) is presumably lower FPS/higher compressed/lower resolution than the second stream flowing to the NVR. I think you have a good understanding of an ideal 'dual streaming' application.
