Iniaves on the Use of Video Products
Thank you for choosing Hikvision products.
Technology aects every aspect of our life. As a high-tech company, we are increasingly aware of
the role technology plays in improving business eciency and quality of life, but at the same me,
the potenal harm of its improper usage. For example, video products are capable of recording
real, complete and clear images. This provides a high value in retrospect and preserving real-me
facts. However, it may also result in the infringement of a third party's legimate rights and
interests if improper distribuon, use and/or processing of video data takes place. With the
philosophy of "Technology for the Good", Hikvision requests that every end user of video
technology and video products shall comply with all the applicable laws and regulaons, as well as
ethical customs, aiming to jointly create a beer community.
Please read the following iniaves carefully:
●
Everyone has a reasonable expectaon of privacy, and the installaon of video products should
not be in conict with this reasonable expectaon. Therefore, a warning noce shall be given in
a reasonable and eecve manner and clarify the monitoring range, when installing video
products in public areas. For non-public areas, a third party's rights and interests shall be
evaluated when installing video products, including but not limited to, installing video products
only aer obtaining the consent of the stakeholders, and not installing highly-invisible video
products.
●
The purpose of video products is to record real acvies within a specic me and space and
under specic condions. Therefore, every user shall rst reasonably dene his/her own rights in
such specic scope, in order to avoid infringing on a third party's portraits, privacy or other
legimate rights.
●
During the use of video products, video image data derived from real scenes will connue to be
generated, including a large amount of biological data (such as facial images), and the data could
be further applied or reprocessed. Video products themselves could not disnguish good from
bad regarding how to use the data based solely on the images captured by the video products.
The result of data usage depends on the method and purpose of use of the data controllers.
Therefore, data controllers shall not only comply with all the applicable laws and regulaons and
other normave requirements, but also respect internaonal norms, social morality, good
morals, common pracces and other non-mandatory requirements, and respect individual
privacy, portrait and other rights and interests.
●
The rights, values and other demands of various stakeholders should always be considered when
processing video data that is connuously generated by video products. In this regard, product
security and data security are extremely crucial. Therefore, every end user and data controller,
shall undertake all reasonable and necessary measures to ensure data security and avoid data
leakage, improper disclosure and improper use, including but not limited to, seng up access

control, selecng a suitable network environment (the Internet or Intranet) where video
products are connected, establishing and constantly opmizing network security.
●
Video products have made great contribuons to the improvement of social security around the
world, and we believe that these products will also play an acve role in more aspects of social
life. Any abuse of video products in violaon of human rights or leading to criminal acvies are
contrary to the original intent of technological innovaon and product development. Therefore,
each user shall establish an evaluaon and tracking mechanism of their product applicaon to

resoluon.
Go to seng page: Conguraon → Video/Audio → Video .
4.1.1 Stream Type
For device supports more than one stream, you can specify parameters for each stream type.
Main Stream
The stream stands for the best stream performance the device supports. It usually oers the
best resoluon and frame rate the device can do. But high resoluon and frame rate usually
means larger storage space and higher bandwidth requirements in transmission.
Sub Stream
The stream usually oers comparavely low resoluon opons, which consumes less bandwidth
and storage space.
Other Streams
Steams other than the main stream and sub stream may also be oered for customized usage.
Set Custom Video
You can set up addional video streams if required. For custom video streams, you can preview
them, but cannot record or play back them.

5.
Oponal: If a custom stream is not needed, click to delete it.
6.
Click Save.
4.1.2 Video Type
Select the content (video and audio) that should be contained in the stream.
Video
Only video content is contained in the stream.
Video & Audio
Video content and audio content are contained in the composite stream.
4.1.3 Resoluon
Select video resoluon according to actual needs. Higher resoluon requires higher bandwidth and
storage.
4.1.4 Bitrate Type and Max. Bitrate
Constant Bitrate
It means that the stream is compressed and transmied at a comparavely xed bitrate. The
compression speed is fast, but mosaic may occur on the image.
Variable Bitrate
It means that the device automacally adjust the bitrate under the set Max. Bitrate. The
compression speed is slower than that of the constant bitrate. But it guarantees the image
quality of complex scenes.
4.1.5 Video Quality
When Bitrate Type is set as Variable, video quality is congurable. Select a video quality according
to actual needs. Note that higher video quality requires higher bandwidth.
Network Camera User Manual
13

4.1.6 Frame Rate
The frame rate is to describe the frequency at which the video stream is updated and it is
measured by frames per second (fps).
A higher frame rate is advantageous when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains
image quality throughout. Note that higher frame rate requires higher bandwidth and larger
storage space.
4.1.7 Video Encoding
It stands for the compression standard the device adopts for video encoding.
Note
Available compression standards vary according to device models.
H.264
H.264, also known as MPEG-4 Part 10, Advanced Video Coding, is a compression standard. Without
compressing image quality, it increases compression rao and reduces the size of video le than
MJPEG or MPEG-4 Part 2.
H.264+
H.264+ is an improved compression coding technology based on H.264. By enabling H.264+, you
can esmate the HDD consumpon by its maximum average bitrate. Compared to H.264, H.264+
reduces storage by up to 50% with the same maximum bitrate in most scenes.
When H.264+ is enabled, Max. Average Bitrate is congurable. The device gives a recommended
max. average bitrate by default. You can adjust the parameter to a higher value if the video quality
is less sasfactory. Max. average bitrate should not be higher than max. bitrate.
Note
When H.264+ is enabled, I Frame Interval is not congurable.
H.265
H.265, also known as High Eciency Video Coding (HEVC) and MPEG-H Part 2, is a compression
standard. In comparison to H.264, it oers beer video compression at the same resoluon, frame
rate and image quality.
Network Camera User Manual
14

H.265+
H.265+ is an improved compression coding technology based on H.265. By enabling H.265+, you
can esmate the HDD consumpon by its maximum average bitrate. Compared to H.265, H.265+
reduces storage by up to 50% with the same maximum bitrate in most scenes.
When H.265+ is enabled, Max. Average Bitrate is congurable. The device gives a recommended
max. average bitrate by default. You can adjust the parameter to a higher value if the video quality
is less sasfactory. Max. average bitrate should not be higher than max. bitrate.
Note
When H.265+ is enabled, I Frame Interval is not congurable.
I-Frame Interval
I-frame interval denes the number of frames between 2 I-frames.
In H.264 and H.265, an I-frame, or intra frame, is a self-contained frame that can be independently
decoded without any reference to other images. An I-frame consumes more bits than other
frames. Thus, video with more I-frames, in other words, smaller I-frame interval, generates more
steady and reliable data bits while requiring more storage space.
SVC
Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is the name for the Annex G extension of the H.264 or H.265 video
compression standard.
The objecve of the SVC standardizaon has been to enable the encoding of a high-quality video
bitstream that contains one or more subset bitstreams that can themselves be decoded with a
complexity and reconstrucon quality similar to that achieved using the exisng H.264 or H.265
design with the same quanty of data as in the subset bitstream. The subset bitstream is derived
by dropping packets from the larger bitstream.
SVC enables forward compability for older hardware: the same bitstream can be consumed by
basic hardware which can only decode a low-resoluon subset, while more advanced hardware
will be able decode high quality video stream.
MPEG4
MPEG4, referring to MPEG-4 Part 2, is a video compression format developed by Moving Picture
Experts Group (MPEG).
Network Camera User Manual
15

MJPEG
Moon JPEG (M-JPEG or MJPEG) is a video compression format in which intraframe coding
technology is used. Images in a MJPEG format is compressed as individual JPEG images.
Prole
This funcon means that under the same bitrate, the more complex the prole is, the higher the
quality of the image is, and the requirement for network bandwidth is also higher.
4.1.8 Smoothing
It refers to the smoothness of the stream. The higher value of the smoothing is, the beer uency
of the stream will be, though, the video quality may not be so sasfactory. The lower value of the
smoothing is, the higher quality of the stream will be, though it may appear not uent.
4.2 ROI
ROI (Region of Interest) encoding helps to discriminate the ROI and background informaon in
video compression. The technology assigns more encoding resource to the region of interest, thus
to increase the quality of the ROI whereas the background informaon is less focused.
4.2.1 Set ROI
ROI (Region of Interest) encoding helps to assign more encoding resource to the region of interest,
thus to increase the quality of the ROI whereas the background informaon is less focused.
