Layout: The Layout parameter lets you decide how you want to configure
the video recording. There is a maximum of 3 cameras connected to the DVR
simultaneously, and you can configure and position each one as needed. Keep in
mind, no matter how many cameras are connected, there is only one recorded
file that will be generated. You can overlay one, two or three cameras on the same
screen, but the video of each camera will not be recorded separately for each
camera. They will all be displayed on the same screen, in the same manner that
you select from the layout parameter.
The first 3 options CH_1, CH_2 and CH_3 correspond to the camera inputs 1, 2
and 3 accordingly. When you select it, the recorded image will be the full screen
image of the selected camera.
PIP stands for Picture-in-Picture. When you select this option, it will create
another video in a smaller window, which will be overlayed over the full screen
of the first video feed. The size and position of the PIP window can be adjusted to
suit your requirements. CAM1 will be displayed in full screen, and the image from
CAM2 will be displayed in the PIP.
PIP-2 creates two PIP windows, which will be positioned at the top of the screen,
one on each side. Their position is not configurable, but you can adjust their size.
The full screen from CAM1 will be shown, while CAM2 will be the left side PIP, and
CAM3 will be the right side PIP.
PIP-2-B creates two PIP windows, which will be positioned at the bottom of the
screen, one on each side. Their position is not configurable, but you can adjust
their size. The full screen from CAM1 will be shown, while CAM2 will be the left
side PIP, and CAM3 will be the right side PIP.
H-SPLIT separates the screen into two video inputs, shown side-by-side. The left
view is from CAM1, while the right view is from CAM2. This mode will shrink both
video inputs by a small margin, and some empty space surrounding the videos
will be created.
V-SPLIT separates the screen into two video inputs, one over the other. The top
view is from CAM1, while the bottom view is from CAM2. This mode will shrink
both video inputs by a small margin, and some empty space surrounding the
videos will be created.
PIP-3 creates 3 PIP windows of the same size, on the same screen. You can change
their size, but not their position. CAM1 will be displayed on top, while CAM2 will
be at the bottom left side and CAM3 at the bottom right side.
PIP-3-B creates 3 PIP windows of the same size, on the same screen. You can
change their size, but not their position. CAM1 will be displayed at the top left of
the screen, while CAM2 will be at the top right and CAM3 at the bottom middle
position.
The Size parameter allows you to change the size of the PIP window. There are 3
possible sizes you can choose from: 1/9, 1/6 or ¼ the total size of the full screen.
When the Border option is enabled, each PIP window will be framed. The frame
color can be changed or you can also make the frame blink, by selecting each
checkbox accordingly.
The Background color refers to the color of the empty space in-between each
PIP window. You can choose between black, blue and some shades of gray.
