Quick Q & A
Q: What are the differences between CIF, 2CIF, 4CIF, QCIF, DCIF & D1 resolution?
A: Resolution and bit rate:
Resolution:
- CIF – 352 x 240 pixels
- 2CIF – 704 x 240 pixels
- 4CIF – 704 x 480 pixels – has the best resolution
- QCIF - 176 x 120 pixels – Is almost never used
- DCIF – 528 x 320 pixels
- 2CIF and DCIF have the same # of pixels but the DCIF has a better aspect ratio (3x4)
- D1 - 720 x 480 pixels - Is basically the same as 4CIF, different manufacturers apply different pixel x pixel but it is usually 16 pixels wider than 4CIF which is un-noticeable to the naked eye.
Bit Rate: Recommended Bit rates (higher motion requires higher bit rates)
- CIF: 4fps: 160–320 kbps ~ 8fps: 224–448 kbps ~ 16fps: 320–640 kbps ~ 20fps: 384–768 kbps ~ 30fps: 448–896 kbps
- DCIF: 4fps: 192-384 kbps ~ 8fps: 256-512 kbps ~ 16fps: 384-768 kbps ~ 20fps: 448–896 kbps ~ 30fps: 512-1024 kbps
- 4CIF: 4fps: 320–640 kbps ~ 8fps: 512-1024 kbps ~ 16fps: 640-1280 kbps ~ 20fps: 896-1792 kbps ~ 30 fps: 1024-2048 kbps
The higher the resolution the larger the file size, the higher the resolution the clearer the image, just like a digital camera.
DCIF (528 x 320), will give the best video quality in a Embedded DVR with 16 channels, we are currently working on providing 4CIF with DVD quality.
Compression is a separate setting and in our hardware is independent of the resolution and frame rate setting. The three settings must be set with each of the other two settings in mind. Too much compression will result in a poor image, too low a frame rate setting will result in lots of missed action and too low a resolution will not deliver the image quality you desire.

Bear in mind that if there is a PTZ or high motion, higher bit rates (lower compression) should be set.
Further on the HDD space
HDD space required is directly fixed to the bit rate and only the bit rate. Bit rate should be determined by the fps, resolution and image quality desired. We can set any bit rate 32kbps-2048kbps with any fps or resolution. The bit rate chosen with a given fps and resolution will dictate the image quality. So you see bit rate is what controls the HDD space needed, but we need to select a bit rate that will give the image quality desired at the programmed fps and resolution.
For example you can set 4CIF, 30fps, 32kbps – useless video
Or
4CIF, 30fps 2048fps – best video
The bit rate selection is what affects the image quality and the HDD space, the fps and resolution do not come into play on the actual calculation, but they are used to determine the bit rate required.
So not factoring fps, resolution or image quality the h.264 system HDD space per hour per channel ranges from 14.4MB to 921MB. Obviously the higher the bit rate the better the image quality. The higher the resolution and fps the higher the bit rate needs to be to get the desired image quality.
32kbps at CIF 1/16th fps is good quality, moving the fps up means moving the bit rate up. More motion needs more bit rate.
Most people will be happy with settings between CIF 6 fps-96kbps to 20 fps-320 kbps on fixed cameras, with PTZ higher bit rates are needed.

Q. How much HDD space does the Audio take up in the recording?
A. 1 or 2% of the file size. Please note there is 2 way audio only, 1 mic, 1 speaker. Connection type: BNC In / Out
Q. Why are your HDDs more expensive than others available on the market?
A. We offer a 5 year warranty on our HDDs, we supply 1 year warranty with RMA, and the remaining 4 years the HDD manufacturer takes care of you. Other companies usually only give you 30 day warranty total.
That's the difference quality and service make!
These systems are custom made and do not use off the shelf components.
A 3-4week lead time is required.
