Camera settings to try to lower CPU usage of Surveillance Pro with PC-NVR

Post by mclemens »

I have a number of IP2M-841B cameras being monitored with Surveillance Pro and PC-NVR. I'd like to lower the CPU usage on the PC where Surveillance Pro and PC-NVR are running.

These are the changes I've already made to the main stream:

1. Encode type to H.264B fron H.264H
2. Resolution to 720p from 1080p
3. Frame rate to 30 from 60
4. Bit rate to 2048 from 4096
5. Audio is turn off (not used for anything)

The video quality is still "good enough" and I've seen some reduction in CPU usage.

Are there any options besides the ones I've already changed that would help reduce my PCs CPU usage?

Thanks for your help.
