# VIDEO STREAMING

This section allows you to configure video streaming parameters for optimal performance based on your network conditions and operational requirements.

### **Auto Connect**

Determines whether the stream starts automatically when the system powers on:

* **Enable** – Automatically initiates video streaming
* **Disable** – Requires manual start.

***

### **Bitrate**

Sets the data rate for video transmission. Higher bitrates offer better quality but require more bandwidth:

* **512 Kbps**
* **1 Mbps**
* **2 Mbps**
* **4 Mbps**
* **8 Mbps**

***

### **Mount Point**

Defines the stream endpoint name used by RTSP clients (e.g., VLC, Payload Assitant App/Desktop):

* **Default:** `payload`
* You can change this value as needed for your streaming setup.

***

### **Port**

Specifies the port number used for RTSP streaming:

* **Default:** `8554`

> 📌 Ensure this port is open and not blocked by firewalls on your network.

***

### **Resolution**

Select the desired output resolution:

* **1920 × 1080 (Full HD)**
* **1280 × 720 (HD)**
* **640 × 360 (Low Bandwidth Mode)**

***

### **Encoder**

Choose the video compression format:

* **H.264 (AVC)** – Standard and widely supported
* **H.265 (HEVC)** – Higher efficiency, reduced bandwidth usage

***

### **Frame Rate**

Set the number of video frames per second (FPS):

* **Range:** 1 to 30 FPS

> Lower frame rates reduce bandwidth and power consumption.

***

### **Individual IR Stream**

Enable or disable a separate infrared video stream:

* **Enable** – Streams IR video independently from EO
* **Disable** – IR is not streamed or is embedded with EO feed

***

### **Saving Your Settings**

Click **“APPLY”** to save and apply your selected streaming configuration.\
Streaming changes may take effect immediately or require a system reboot.
