The chosen event(s) will trigger the recorded action. Click OK. Configure desired frame rates of normal and boosting recording in the Video Encoder box.

Note: Please note it is required to enable Smart Guard from the Main Console panel before configuring boosting record on event to trigger recording.

Encoded Video

For IP cameras!

The Encode Video function will reduce frames or re-encode original streaming from IP cameras. To save Hard Disk usage, adjust frame rate with original video format or re-encode to smaller file size by adjusting frame rate, resolution and Quality/Bit rate.

Keep Original Video format:

Select this option to reduce frame rate only but not to re-encode video streams to save Hard Disk usage.

Adjust MJPEG video frame rate: Move slider to left to reduce frame rate.

Note: The maximum FPS will correspond to original video streams set up on camera configuration.

Keep key-frame only: System will only record key frames of video streaming.

Note: The key frame interval is controlled by each camera manufacturer and cannot be adjusted.

Customized encoding: * not available under NUUO NVR Lite License The video stream will be decoded then re-encoded by configuration. Click Setup button to adjust Encoder Parameter .

Note: Customized encoding function causes high CPU usage,

make sure the PC specification is enough (recommend Core 2

Quad or above)

For Analog cameras
