H.264 Speed Up On Alarm/Event
From what I've read so far, it seems H.264 has no means to dynamically adjust frame rate at the request of VMS unless stream is disconnected and restsablished with required frame parameters. Does this means no VMS can support frame rate speed up on H.264 on alarm/event?
Frame rate boost is usually a feature that is available in the VMS regardless of the CODEC used. However, the trigger is usually implemented to ramp up in case of motion, you mentioned alarms- it could be that the VMS has not implemented this ramp up feature for alarms.
Which VMS are you using?
Would you include specifics as to how it is configured?
Milestone - KB 467 : Speed-up on motion does not work with H.264 or MPEG-4 |

KB Area: Usage |
Description: The speed-up on motion or event feature allows you to use a slow frame rate for normal video and a higher frame rate for interesting events, for example, as a result of motion detection or pressing a panic button. However, when you stream in H.264 or MPEG-4, no option exists to increase the frame rate on motion or event. In most cases, you can only choose to record all frames instead of only the key frames.
Solution: When speed-up on event is a requirement, you must use the MJPEG codec. With this codec, each frame is an individual, independent picture. You do not lose connection briefly when requesting more frames. Alternatively, if you normally only need about one frame per second, you can choose to record key frames only, and record all frames on motion or event. |
