Stream Selection

Easy stream selections at the primary and secondary data centers

About

This tool enables the user to select video streams from each camera to transmit to each data center. While primary and secondary data centers must utilize identical camera stream definitions to support redundant recording, each can independently determine which stream to use for live view and playback. This tool streamlines the process of selecting streams.

Key Benefits

• Utilize this tool to achieve asymmetric redundancy by selecting different streams from the same camera in the primary and secondary data centers.

If different streams are chosen here, turn off stream synchronization in the camera section of the configuration page.
