On the AVI Generation tab, you can specify compression settings for the generation of AVI video clip files. The settings are required if you want to include AVI files in e-mail notifications sent by rule-triggered notification profiles.

Compressor |
Select the codec (compression/decompression technology) that you want to apply. To have more codecs available in the list, install them on the management server. |
Compression quality |
(Not available for all codecs). Use the slider to select the degree of compression (0-100) to be performed by the codec. 0 means no compression, generally resulting in high image quality and large file size. 100 means maximum compression, generally resulting in low image quality and small file size. If the slider is not available, the compression quality is determined entirely by the selected codec. |
Keyframe every |
(Not available for all codecs). If you want to use keyframes, select the check box and specify the required number of frames between keyframes. A keyframe is a single frame stored at specified intervals. The keyframe contains the entire view of the camera, whereas the following frames contain only the pixels that change. This helps greatly reduce the size of files. If the check box is not available, or not selected, every frame contains the entire view of the camera. |
Data rate |
(Not available for all codecs). If you want to use a particular data rate, select the check box and specify the number of kilobytes per second. The data rate specifies the size of the attached AVI file. If the check box is not available, or not selected, the data rate is determined by the selected codec. |
