Video Compression:

A choice of Geo H.264, H.264 V2, Geo MPEG4 ASP compression for local recording is selectable by camera (Geo MPEG4 gives about 4 times the compression of Wavelet).

Video Resolution

Camera images can be displayed and recorded in a choice of 720x480, 720x240, 640x480, 640x240 or 320x240 pixels. All cameras images must run at the same resolution although this can be changed at any time.

Digital Watermarking

Digital watermarking can be selected, to prove the integrity of recorded videos. This is particularly useful if recordings are to be used as evidence in court.

Multiple Display Options

Video Exporting

Communications

All can be turned on or off with just one mouse click. Compression of transmitted images can be set from remote systems as H.264, independent of recording compression of the host system. H.264 will provide much faster transmission. New webcam software allows up to 16 cameras to be viewed on one screen from the same or multiple DVRs.
