Factors affecting Camera Imaging within VI MonitorPlus
Bit Rate - a higher bit rate usually provides better picture quality.
Resolution - a higher resolution usually provides better picture quality.
Format - some picture formats, such as AVI, incorporate better algorithms that more accurately represent the video capture. The most basic, but bandwidth heavy MJPEG, was industry-standard for many years. Since then, other video codecs have been used, including H.264 and H.265.
Firmware - outdated firmware can impair camera functionality.
Location - unless intended for such use, placement in dark or obstructed locations, or in places affected by adverse weather, will not result in useful pictures.
Number of cameras connected to Server - The higher the number of connected cameras, the greater the load on Server resources.
