ENR-1000 Series System Administrator's Manual

Video Display Performance

On a live or playback screen, ENR handles displayed video based on the combination of the
following factors, which you should put into consideration when configuring your view layout:
(1) The number of channels
The
(2)
format of video stream, e.g. resolution and frame rate.
To balance the loading of the system, ENR will decode only I frames
CPU usage is critical. The video stream is still recorded at its original frame rate no matter at
what quality it is displayed.
To acquire good video display quality, however, it is suggested that you try to use the layout
containing just enough channels, or make use of Sequence Patrol function.

Local Live View / Playback

On local display, ENR determines when to enter Decode-I mode according to these key
references – (1) your selection of Layout and (2) the Video Resolution. A layout consisting
of more channels and high-resolution streams are considered more CPU consuming, which
is more likely to trigger Decode-I mode. Take ENR-1100 for example, by switching the live
screen layout from 4x4 style (16 channels) to Quad style (4 channels), the video will appear
much smoother.
