DVR will scan the two inputs to see which one is receiving video.

Format

Auto, 4:3, 5:3, 16:9, 2.35. This is the aspect ratio of the screen that the DVR

will record. You can set this manually, but in most cases you can just leave it on

Auto.

Pictures/sec

High, Low. If you choose High, the DVR will record at 30 frames per second in

the North American NTSC standard and 25 frames per second in European PAL

standard. On low, it will record at 15 frames/sec and 12.5 frames/sec (half speed).

Bitrate

500 kb/s, 1000 kb/s, 1500kb/s, 2000 kb/s. Use this to set the encoding quality

(similar to the idea of JPEG image quality settings). The higher the encoding

rate, the higher the image quality but also the more hard drive space is used.

screen.
