General performance factors
The following factors affect the input side of performance:
Total number of video streams from the cameras (i.e. not just the number of cameras)
The video recording types (motion only or continuous) per camera
The video stream parameters per camera – i.e. video compression (constant or variable bit rate mode), image quality level, complexity of the scene, video resolution and frame rate per second.
The following factors affect the output side of performance:
Number of administrator/operator/viewer sessions
Peak number of simultaneous administrator/operator/viewer live views
The video stream parameters per camera live view – i.e. video compression (constant or variable bit rate mode), image quality level, complexity of the scene, video resolution and frame rate per second.
