Answer:
You can configure and display media streams from a camera. Streams can be transmitted using UDP or TCP protocols to a specified IP address and port number.
Note: Settings take effect after the camera restarts.
Note: Only specific models support this function. Refer to your model for details.
Note: Choose the transport protocol based on network performance:
- TCP: Better image quality, but higher latency.
- UDP: Lower latency, but may have reduced image quality.
Steps:
- Navigate to Setup > Video & Audio > Media Stream.
- Click the Add button, select a Stream Type, and set the following:
- IP Address: IP address of the unicast or multicast group receiving the stream.
- Port Number: Port number for the receiving device.
- Persistent: Select "Yes" if you want the stream to auto-establish after a restart.
- To delete an existing stream, click the Delete icon next to the stream entry.
- Click Submit to save and apply the configuration.
