1464704	2019-10-27 08:41:00	I am trying to do calculation on bandwidth usage of IP cameras streaming video feed. Specifically for Axis camera I see settings of capture mode with few variables: Frame Rate Resolution Compresssion (H.264) Is there some simple formula on calculating a cameras throughput in Mbps for a given set of values for above variables? Also is there some tool i can use to stream video feed of camera over the network, which gives me a bit rate of the feed so i can validate the calculated Mbps Have attached screenshots of settings of a camera i am seeing. I am trying to find a happy medium for feed quality without saturating the bandwidth. Cheers	learning (5137)

Edited: just found this calc - www.supercircuits.com WARNING you may need to block the damn pop up Edited 2: Dont know if this helps www.axis.com	wainuitech (129)

I had googled and saw the first link you provided. Wasnt sure what 'video quality' represented the underlaying value. I will look into the second link you mentioned. Cheers	learning (5137)
