Recording: Encode - Sub Stream
Camera No.: Select a camera that you would like to configure.
Camera Name: Enter a name for the camera you’ve selected. It can be up to
16 characters in length.
OSD Display Position: Allows you to change the position of the on-screen
display. Click the “Set” button to change. Use the mouse to reposition the
camera name. Right-click the mouse then click “Save” to exit.
Record Audio: This is enabled by default and allows sound from your camer-
as to be recorded with the video stream. Click the checkbox if audio recording
is not required.
Encoding Parameters: Select which parameter that you would like to config-
ure - Main Stream or Sub Stream. By default, the AlwaysSafe app utilises the
Sub Stream parameter to stream video from your NVR to your mobile device.
Resolution: The default resolution is 640 x 360 and cannot be changed.
Max. Frame Rate (fps): The default frame rate is 6fps. Increasing the Sub
Stream frame rate may improve playback smoothness when streaming but
can also reduce the overall video quality when viewed on your mobile device.
Some experimentation is required to get the optimal viewing experience.
Max. BitRate (Kbps): The maximum bitrate is 512Kbps and the default bi-
trate is 64Kbps. Increasing the bitrate will improve the video quality when
viewed on your mobile device, but needs a fast internet upstream speed for
the best remote viewing experience. Some experimentation is required to get
the optimal viewing experience.
→ Click the “Default” button to revert back to default settings.

→ Don’t forget to click “Apply” to save settings.
The functions available al-
low you to control how video
is streamed to your mobile
device using the AlwaysSafe
app. You can change the res-
olution, frame rate and bi-
trate if you’re having issues
streaming live video from
your NVR.
Change the Sub Stream bitrate if
you’re having issues such as video
buffering or slow frame rates when
streaming to your mobile device.
By lowering the bitrate, you reduce
the amount of data that is trans-
mitted over the internet which can
improve the video you see on your
mobile device when you are away
from home. Some high speed in-
ternet connections allow higher bi-
trates to be used.
