Initiatives on the Use of Video Products
Thank you for choosing Hikvision products.
Technology affects every aspect of our life. As a high-tech company, we are increasingly aware of
the role technology plays in improving business efficiency and quality of life, but at the same time,
the potential 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-time
facts. However, it may also result in the infringement of a third party's legitimate rights and
interests if improper distribution, 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 regulations, as well as
ethical customs, aiming to jointly create a better community.
Please read the following initiatives carefully:
●
Everyone has a reasonable expectation of privacy, and the installation of video products should
not be in conflict with this reasonable expectation. Therefore, a warning notice shall be given in
a reasonable and effective 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 after obtaining the consent of the stakeholders, and not installing highly-invisible video
products.
●
The purpose of video products is to record real activities within a specific time and space and
under specific conditions. Therefore, every user shall first reasonably define his/her own rights
in such specific scope, in order to avoid infringing on a third party's portraits, privacy or other
legitimate rights.
●
During the use of video products, video image data derived from real scenes will continue 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 distinguish 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
regulations and other normative requirements, but also respect international norms, social
morality, good morals, common practices 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 continuously 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, setting
up access control, selecting a suitable network environment (the Internet or Intranet) where
video products are connected, establishing and constantly optimizing network security.

●
Video products have made great contributions to the improvement of social security around the
world, and we believe that these products will also play an active role in more aspects of social
life. Any abuse of video products in violation of human rights or leading to criminal activities are
contrary to the original intent of technological innovation and product development. Therefore,
each user shall establish an evaluation and tracking mechanism of their product application to
ensure that every product is used in a proper and reasonable manner and with good faith.

Chapter 8 Encoding and Display
8.1 Set Video Encoding Parameters
Set video encoding parameters to adjust the live view and recording effect.
●
When the network signal is good and the speed is fast, you can set high resolution and bitrate to
raise the image quality.
●
When the network signal is bad and the speed is slow, you can set low resolution, bitrate, and
frame rate to guarantee the image fluency.
●
When the network signal is bad, but the resolution should be guaranteed, you can set low
bitrate and frame rate to guarantee the image fluency.
●
Main stream stands for the best stream performance the device supports. It usually offers the
best resolution and frame rate the device can do. But high resolution and frame rate usually
means larger storage space and higher bandwidth requirements in transmission. Sub-stream
usually offers comparatively low resolution options, which consumes less bandwidth and
storage space. Third stream is offered for customized usage.
Steps
Note
The supported parameters vary with different models. The actual device prevails.
1. Go to Configuration → Video → Video Encoding → Video Encoding.
2. Set the parameters for different streams.
Stream Type
Select the stream type according to your needs.
Note
The supported stream types vary with different models. The actual device prevails.
Bitrate
Select relatively large bitrate if you need good image quality and effect, but more storage
spaces will be consumed. Select relatively small bitrate if storage requirement is in priority.
Frame Rate
It 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.
Resolution
The higher the resolution is, the clearer the image will be. Meanwhile, the network
Tyre and Axle Recognition Unit User Manual
32
bandwidth requirement is higher.
SVC
Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is an extension of the H.264/AVC and H.265 standard. Enable the
function and the device will automatically extract frames from the original video when the
network bandwidth is insufficient.
Bitrate Type
Select the bitrate type to constant or variable.
Video Quality
When bitrate type is variable, 6 levels of video quality are selectable. The higher the video
quality is, the higher requirements of the network bandwidth.
Profile
When you select H.264 or H.265 as video encoding, you can set the profile. Selectable profiles
vary according to device models.
I Frame Interval
It refers to the number of frames between two key frames. The larger the I frame interval is,
the smaller the stream fluctuation is, but the image quality is not that good.
Video Encoding
The device supports multiple video encoding types, such as H.264, H.265, and MJPEG.
Supported encoding types for different stream types may differ. H.265 is a new encoding
technology. Compared with H.264, it reduces the transmission bitrate under the same
resolution, frame rate, and image quality.
