4.2.2 Video / Audio Configuration
Go to Image→Video / Audio interface as shown below. In this interface, set the resolution,
frame rate, bitrate type, video quality and so on subject to the actual network condition.
Note: The video stream parameters of different camera series may be different. The
following pictures and descriptions are for reference only. The real camera interface
shall prevail.
For GV-FER6900
You can select streams for different channels.
IP Channel 1: Fisheye view channel, 2 streams can be set. Please set them according to the
actual network condition.
IP Channel 2: Panoramic view channel, main stream can be set. Please set them according to
the actual network condition.
IP Channel 3/4/5: PTZ view channel, main stream can be set for each channel. Please set
them according to the actual network condition.
All Models
Three video streams can be adjustable.
Resolution: The size of image.
Frame rate: The higher the frame rate, the smoother the video is.
Bitrate type: CBR and VBR are optional. Bitrate is related to image quality. CBR means that
no matter how much change is seen in the video scene, the compression bitrate will be kept
constant. VBR means that the compression bitrate will be adjusted according to scene
changes. For example, for scenes that do not have much movement, the bitrate will be kept at
a lower value. This can help optimize the network bandwidth usage.
Bitrate: It can be adjusted when the bitrate type is set to CBR. The higher the bitrate, the
better the image quality will be.
Video Quality: It can be adjusted when the bitrate type is set to VBR. The higher the image
quality, the more bitrate will be required.
I Frame interval: It determines how many frames are allowed between a “group of pictures”.
When a new scene begins in a video, until that scene ends, the entire group of frames (or
pictures) can be considered as a group of pictures. If there is not much movement in the
scene, setting the value higher than the frame rate is fine, potentially resulting in less
28
bandwidth usage. However, if the value is set too high, and there is a high frequency of
movement in the video, there is a risk of frame skipping.
Video Compression: MJPEG, H264+, H264, H265 or H265+ are applicable. MJPEG is not
available for main stream. If H.265 / H.265+is chosen, make sure the client system is able to
decode H.265 / H.265+. Compared to H.265, H.265+ saves more storage space with the
same maximum bitrate in most scenes. Compared to H.264, H.265 reduces the transmission
bitrate under the same resolution, frame rate and image quality.
Note: For the browsers not supporting plugins, MJPEG is not recommended (if the sub /
third stream and MJPEG are selected, no image will be output).
Profile: For H.264. Baseline, main and high profiles are selectable.
Send Snapshot: Set the snapshot stream.
Video encode slice split: If this function is enabled, smooth image can be gotten even
though using the low-performance PC.
Watermark: When playing back the local recorded video in the search interface, the
watermark can be displayed. To enable it, check the watermark box and enter the watermark
text.
Note: When the camera is connected to GV-Cloud VMS, the resolution and bitrate values
will be grayed out and cannot be modified. For details on GV-Cloud VMS connection, see
4.5.1 GV-Cloud.
Click the “Audio” tab to go to the interface as shown below.
Only the models with the built-in MIC support this function.

can be set.
29
Audio Output (not applicable to GV-GFER6900): Talkback, warning or auto can be optional.
If “Talkback” is selected, the audio output will be used to output sound for two-way talk. If
“Warning” is selected, the audio output will be used to output the pre-defined audio alarm. If
“Auto” is selected, the system will output sound for two-way talk or warning voice as needed.
But when it is warning and two-way audio is being enabled simultaneously, two-way audio will
be output first.
Speaker (for GV-GEBF4911): Talkback, warning or auto can be optional. If “Talkback” is
selected, the built-in speaker will be used to output sound for two-way talk. If “Warning” is
selected, the built-in speaker will be used to output the pre-defined audio alarm. If “Auto” is
selected, the system will output sound for two-way talk or warning voice as needed. But when

※ Configuration requirements of camera and surrounding area
1. Auto-focusing function should not be enabled for line crossing detection.
2. Avoid the scenes with many trees or the scenes with various light changes (like many
flashing headlights). The ambient brightness of the scenes shouldn’t be too low.
3. Cameras should be mounted at a height of 2.8 meters or above.
4. The recommended depression angle of the camera is from 30° to 45° (See 8. Installation
suggestion below).
5. For pedestrians, their heads and main bodies should be clearly visible on a video. The
detected objects should not be less than 1% of the entire image and the largest sizes of
the detected objects should not be more than 1/8 of the entire image.
For vehicles, the depression angle should not be more than the recommended value.
The sideways or horizontal viewing angle is recommended on a video.
6. Make sure cameras can view objects for at least 2 seconds in the detected area for
accurate detection.
7. Adequate light and clear scenery are crucial for line crossing detection.
8. Please adjust the installation position or focus to meet the requirements of the target
recognition size.
The recommended target recognition size:
Note: The percentage means that a target occupies the percentage of the entire image. For
example, in a 1080p (1920×1080) video image, the minimum resolution of human is 80×160
(w=1920 x 4%=80, h=1920 x 8%=160).
Percentage

8% × 8%
4% × 4%
Maximum
（Width × Height)
50%× 50%
50%× 50%
50%× 50%
59
Correct example
The target recognition box meets the requirements of the minimum size. The yellow box
stands for the minimum recognition size. The green box stands for the set target box.
Wrong example
The yellow box stands for the minimum recognition size. The green box stands for the set
target box. These two target recognition boxes don’t meet the requirement of the minimum
size. Therefore, you need to adjust the camera position or focus as needed.

Appendix 2 Configuration Requirements and Surrounding
Area
1. Auto-focusing function should not be enabled. Enabling auto-focusing may cause
significant changes in the picture, leading to temporary algorithm interruption.
2. Try to avoid excessive obstruction from trees, while also avoiding excessive variations in
lighting conditions in the scene, such as frequent and excessive car headlights, etc., to
improve the accuracy of intelligent functions. The brightness of the scene should not be
too low, as excessively dim scenes will reduce the accuracy of alarms. Adequate lighting
and clear scenery are important conditions.
3. The optimal overhead angle for the camera is between 30 degrees and 45 degrees (see
outdoor installation diagram for 12 mm lens).
For pedestrians: It is necessary to include the upper body, with the head and torso.
For vehicles: The downward angle should not be too large (not exceeding the
recommended angle). Oblique and horizontal views are preferred over downward views,
and it is recommended to install the camera with an oblique view.
4. When the camera is detecting, the target should spend at least about 2 seconds passing
through the detection area.
5. Not suitable for scenes with significant changes in lighting.
6. Adjust the camera so that the area needing protection is positioned as centrally as
possible within the field of view. There should be no obstructions in the main thoroughfare
areas. Try to exclude swaying obstructions such as trees, bushes, flags, etc., from the
detection area.
7. Please adjust the camera's installation position or focal length so that the targets of
interest in the frame meet certain size requirements. Optimal target recognition sizes:
The proportion here refers to the ratio of the target's width to the width of the frame. For
example, in a resolution of 1920×1080, the minimum resolution for a person would be 80×160
(w=1920×4%=80, h=1920×8%=160).
