Multistreaming

You can use the multistreaming feature to stream a multiple of videos, with different settings or from different regions, to a multiple of users from a single camera view. For example, you can limit the video quality for remote users, and at the same time display the same video in high quality for local users. Each camera has a different limit to the number of streams you can add, and for each video you stream, you can apply custom settings for recording schedules, archiving, and event triggers.

Note: The multistreaming feature is available only on camera models that support multistreaming.
  1. The Multistreaming list displays the next context stream number available. To view all the streams on a camera, expand the camera in the navigation tree.
  2. In the Live window, a stream with a specific region of interest is listed as a separate camera in the navigation tree. A camera that has streams with different settings is recognized with a yellow star in the navigation tree, and its streams with different settings display as children in the navigation tree.
  3. To delete a stream, in the Multistreaming area, click Delete Stream.
  4. To name a new context stream, adjust the quality settings, and create a region of interest, then click Add Stream.
