In the dialog you will have a flexible choice of what parts of decoding to shift to the client side – whether it’s just the preview steam for the Multiple Cameras View mode the preview stream used for the Single Camera View mode decoding of the archive view stream all these options together, or a combination of them. If decoding is done on the client side it will receive a compressed, ‘lighter’ stream. This option will also be of use if the network bandwidth between server and client is very low (e.g. You can turn on the decoding on the client side via the “Layouts menu” – “Client decoding settings”. If you do that, the server will be receiving and storing streams in an “untouched” (compressed) form, and the decoding will be launched only on the client’s device and only when the client requests to view the steam. To mitigate the CPU load on your Xeoma server you can shift the decoding process to the client side – partly or wholly. In such case, high CPU load can cause the video stream to appear as jerky, or result in other system faults. If H264/H265 streams are used for archive saving, they are decoded when you view the archive recordings.ĭecoding of H264/H265 streams (especially of those with high resolution and/or bitrate) can take a lot of system resources. If H264/H265 streams are used for preview (the “URL for preview” field in the “Universal Camera” settings) they are decoded when they first arrive to Xeoma. In order to view such streams they need to first be decoded at some point. If H264/H265 streams are used in your system, Xeoma receives them in a compressed (“encoded”) form. You can choose either decoding on the Client side or decoding on the Server side. Might result in less smooth (more “jerky”) stream perception – depending on the key frames interval set in camera. The higher the resolution of the stream used “for preview”, the better this option helps to decrease the processor load. Turn on this option to decrease the processor load coming from decoding of compressed H264 streams by decoding only keyframes of the stream. Turn on decoding of keyframes in the ‘Universal camera’ module’s settings.ĭecode only keyframes option is only shown when an H264/H264+ stream is used in the ‘Full URL address for preview stream from the camera’ field (not available for MJPEG or H265 streams). More about this method can be checked in this article.Ģ.
By means of dual-streaming you can lower CPU load significantly without losing image quality. This way you’ll see lower resolution stream on preview and higher in single camera view mode and archive in Xeoma. You can use lower resolution URL/stream for preview of all cameras (1st URL in the ‘Universal camera’ module’s settings) and higher resolution URL for single camera view mode and archive. You can try the following options to reduce the CPU load: There are several ways to reduce the CPU load on your computer (or other device) depending on your configuration.
