It is composed of the following four sections: Stream Options, MPEG-4 Media Options, MPEG-4 Protocol Options and MP4 Saving Options. When completed with the settings on this page, click Save on the page bottom to take effect.
Stream Options
The Network Camera supports MPEG-4 and MJPEG dual streams. For more information, please refer to Video settings on page 36.
MPEG-4 Media Options
Select to stream video or audio data. This works only when the video mode is set to MPEG-4.
MPEG-4 Protocol Options
Depending on your network environment, there are four transmission modes of MPEG-4 streaming:
UDP unicast: This protocol allows for more real-time audio and video streams. However, network packets may be lost due to network burst traffic and images may be broken. Activate UDP connection when occasions require time-sensitive responses and the video quality is less important. Note that each unicast client connecting to the server takes up additional bandwidth and the Network Camera allows up to ten simultaneous accesses.
UDP multicast: This protocol allows multicast-enabled routers to forward network packets to all clients requesting streaming media. This helps to reduce the network transmission load of the Network Camera while serving multiple clients at the same time. Note that to utilize this feature, the Network Camera must be configured to enable multicast streaming at the same time. For more information, see RTSP Streaming on page 34.
18 - User's Manual
VIVOTEK - A Leading Provider of Multimedia Communication Solutions
TCP: This protocol guarantees the complete delivery of streaming data and thus provides better video quality. Nevertheless, the downside with this protocol is that its real-time effect is not as good as that of the UDP protocol.
HTTP: This protocol allows the same quality as TCP protocol and you don’t need to open specific port for streaming under some network environments. Users inside a firewall can utilize this protocol to allow streaming data to come through.
MP4 Saving Options
Users can record the live video as they are watching it by clicking Start MP4 Recording on the main page. Here, you can specify the storage destination and file name.

HTTP
Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the Network Camera provides two types of security settings for a HTTP transaction: basic and digest. If basic authentication is selected, the password is sent in plain text format; there can be potential risks of being intercepted. If digest authentication is selected, user credentials are encrypted in MD5 algorithm and thus provide better protection against unauthorized accesses.
HTTP port / Secondary HTTP port: By default, the HTTP port is set to 80 and the secondary HTTP port is set to 8080. Also, they can be assigned with another port number between 1025 and 65535. If the ports are incorrectly assigned, the following warning messages are displayed:

This technology, known as “server push”, allows the Network Camera to feed live pictures to Mozilla Firefox and Netscape. Use http://<ip address>:<http port>/<access name for stream1 or stream2> to make connection.
