About stream profiles
A stream profile is a set of predefined stream settings including resolution, compression, frame rate and overlay settings. Stream
profiles can be used:
•
When setting up recording using action rules. See Events on page 34.
•
When setting up continuous recording. See Continuous Recording on page 40.
•
In the Live View page – select the stream profile from the Stream profile drop-down list.
To create a new profile or modify an existing profile, go to Setup > Video > Stream Profiles.
To select a default stream profile for the Live View page, go to Setup > Live View Config.
About ONVIF media profiles
An ONVIF media profile consists of a set of configurations that can be used to change media stream settings. ONVIF media profiles
can be used by a client to configure media stream properties.
The ONVIF Media Profiles page lists all preconfigured profiles. These profiles are included in the product for quick setup. You can
add, modify or remove ONVIF media profiles from this page.
Camera Settings
The Video > Camera Settings page provides access to advanced image settings for the Axis product.
About capture modes
Capture mode defines the maximum frame rate available in the Axis product and affects light sensitivity. A capture mode with a high
maximum frame rate has reduced light sensitivity and vice versa.
To change capture mode, follow these steps:
1. Go to Setup > Video > Camera Settings.
2. Select the new capture mode.
3. Click Save.
Image Appearance
To change Image Appearance go to the menus under Setup > Video > Camera Settings.
The image Brightness can be adjusted in the range 0–100, where a higher value produces a brighter image.
Increasing the Sharpness can increase bandwidth usage. A sharper image might increase image noise especially in low light
conditions. A lower setting reduces image noise, but the whole image will appear less sharp.
White Balance
To change this setting go to Setup > Video > Camera Settings
White balance is used to make colors in the image appear the same regardless of the color temperature of the light source. The Axis
product can be set to automatically identify the light source and compensate for its color. Alternatively, select the type of light
source from the drop-down list. For a description of each available setting, see the online help
