Logic 3 V5.00 Manual Do Utilizador

Uses bi-directional frames to decrease the file size of recorded footage 

 
Caution: This is a CPU intensive setting. 

To switch the recording CODEC to MPEG4, select the “MPEG4” option from the CODEC drop-down box. 

 

 

 

Sets the number of keyframes recorded per second.  The higher the value, the greater 
the data space needed for recording, but the higher the quality of the video. 

Changes the size of the regions used to detect motion. 

Selects the type of compression.  H263 offers higher compression than MPEG4 but 
requires more CPU usage. 

Motion estimation accuracy.  Full pixel checks for motion comparing differences of full 

pixels.  Half pixel will check for motion using an interpolation method.  Although half 
pixel will detect finer movements, it is also very CPU intensive. 

Changes the shape of the area used for motion detection.  Fast search will save CPU time 

but full search is more accurate. 

Sets the number of vectors tested for motion from 1 to 4. The greater the number, the 
more CPU processing is required. 

Depending on your DVR model, it may use H264 recording.  This cannot be changed to another codec and 

has slightly different customization options. 
 

 

 

The default setting of variable bit rate allows the encoder to change its recording bit rate 

automatically as required.  This option offers the best trade off of file size and visual 
quality. 

This sets a hard limit on the maximum quality that can be recorded.  Options are Low, 
Medium, High, and Super-high. 

Instead of a variable bit rate, this option will make it constant.  A setting of constant, 

super-high bit rate will provide the maximum video quality settings, at the expense of 
storage space.
