Input/suggestions for night time footage

Yes, sir, I am recording direct to disk... I'll increase the bitrate now; is there anything in particular I should be looking for after I make the change?

**Correction** This camera was NOT recording direct to disk on the first video. The second video with the bitrate at 4096 was recorded direct to disk. Sorry about that.

Getting comfortable
May want to add a timestamp embedded on your video and sync to a NTP server.
Thank you. I do want to do this... I'm still trying to figure out how to set this up properly.

First, it aint all that bad as it is.
Kinda tough to diagnose because there's so many settings that affect each other.
Things I'd try one at at time:
- Match FPS and Iframe - both 15
- Humor me and bump bitrate to 8192
- Backlight may be part of the problem. Try with it off
- Try 1/30 and 1/60 with Backlight off. about 0-50 Gain
- DNR as low as you can stand, but you dont have much noise
- Play with that Gamma setting a bit, Ive rarely moved it from default 50 with any success...

Thanks for the input!! If the kiddos go down easy this evening, I’ll start tonight with some of your suggestions.
