The difference in how much you have to record and how many videos you need to watch at once, creates a very big difference in the required video compression for devices that might seem to do exactly the same thing: record video. This saves massive amounts of storage space without really losing anything of value. It also focuses nearly all of the processing power of the camera on the areas of the screen with activity, so you can record much higher resolution video in H.
Block Oriented Compression is great, because it reduces storage costs, allows you to stream higher quality, crisp clear video without taking too much data, and is what allows you to be able to watch things like Netflix, Youtube, or your surveillance video in HD. MJPEG video would never be able to load fast enough. Both H. Most of the movie and tech industry was involved with the creation of the patents which went into H. Google argued that H.
At the time, the Moving Picture Experts Group wasn't enforcing the patent fees much anyways, since everyone was just saying "I'll let you use my patents royalty free, if you let me use your patents royalty free. This seemed like a waste to Google - and just to be clear, we think it was a waste. Paying lawyers and requiring complex negotiations to result in, what was usually, just the free trading of patents is a waste of money.
Google and a couple other patent providers, including Mozilla, agreed to open source their patents to make it truly free. They thought everyone else would do so as well. And then, Google lost their power.
Not only did the other providers not open source H. The equilibrium had shifted. Before Google open sourced their patents, there were no major parties to collect fees from. Now, the other companies now had a major player to charge for the use of their patents.
Google could no longer say "I'll let you use my patents royalty free, if you let me use your patents royalty free," since anyone could use their open source patents. Read more about dual streaming here Read more here on how it should be set up in Xeoma. Xeoma video security solution has various ways of saving video footage from cameras.
Format of recordings:. Earlier versions of Xeoma had. The easiest way to check format and stream format and other characteristics for a network IP camera is to check that information in the camera web admin page in the Video or network tab. It will look something like this:. That means that recordings will be in. Get emails, once a day, Monday to Friday. It is reductionistic and only mentions elements most common in today's IP video surveillance systems. Compression is limited by complexity.
The more complex or the more seemingly random a pattern is, the less likely it is for a pattern to be compressed or the harder it is to accomplish this. Stream Analyzer : In this test, we used a free stream analyzer from Avinaptic to examine the H. Download the Avinaptic software. In our screencast case study, we examine a test video clip showing variations in complexity and quality download the stream analyzer test sample [link no longer available].
However, it is even more important to understand this when using H. This is because variation in bit rates for H.
By scene complexity, we mean how much activity is occurring in the scene of video that you are capturing. For instance, a person talking in front of a white wall is far less 'complex' than a crowded stadium. In general, the more color, shapes, sizes, objects and movements in a scene, the more complex that scene will be.
The more complex a scene is the more bandwidth will be needed to maintain the same quality level. Equally important, the complexity of a scene can change depending on the time or day or the time of year. For instance, a group of people meeting in a lunch room is a far more complex scene than that same lunchroom on Saturday when the office is closed.
To maintain the same quality, all CODECs will require more bandwidth for the period when a group of people meet than when the lunch room is unoccupied. More complex scenes are often the most important scenes within video surveillance as they reflect activity and potentially problems or at least activities of interest. In the video below we show you bandwidth consumption differs for a variety of common scenes:The impact of complexity on bandwidth differs significantly between MJPEG and H.
In our tests, with MJPEG, the difference in bandwidth needed for the least to most complex scenes only differed by a factor of 3. However, in our tests with H. The H. It is a fallacy that MJPEG's bandwidth demands are constant or that the stream size does not vary with complexity. They can safely do this because the variance in bandwidth size due to complexity is relatively limited for MJPEG. However, this does expose some modest level of quality loss or bandwidth inefficiency.
Even though H. While our tests show that fixed image size can be used fairly safely for MJPEG without thought or planning, such an approach is risky and problematic for H. With Constant Bit Rate, the IP camera will maintain the same bandwidth level regardless of the scene's complexity.
If bandwidth is insufficient to match the complexity, quality will be sacrificed. Packets are going to be transmitted via UDP, this means it can cause problems with firewalls. This is the go that does not happen with MPEG videos. This makes it possible to change the display quality in full playback of the video. So there are no problems with Internet protocols. The H format is a form of video encoding that offers an advanced understanding of the MPEG4 format.
It also has a sharper and superior image. Along with all this, it should be noted that it works with a larger bandwidth on the network. Therefore, the H format is the most effective for video surveillance that is done by mobile phone. The most important difference that can be highlighted is that the MPEG2 format is used only for the playback of a DVD, regardless of whether it is more or less old.
