Sub Stream Dropping out on less than a year old T54IR-ZE-S3

I was running the max, 16384, and whatever the max was on the 2 SS's

If its an option, it should be able to do it, in my view...

I run that on 4K but typically 10240 on 4MP. I dont see a difference above that

Sadly we have seen many instances over the years of the little processors in these things not being able to run everything at max.

Maybe you can get by with max bitrate but no IVS as an example. Or max bitrate with no substreams. Endless combinations that won't work well together.

But I have yet to see an improvement running at max bitrate. Plus it seems it oversharpens the higher the bitrate.
 
i wonder if matching all the FPS would have any effect.......that and drop the mainstream load a little so its not maxed.
 
So this T54IR-ZE-S3 started having some other problems, and I have a new one installed now

I will bump the bit rate back up and report back, will be interesting to see if it was a camera specific issue or all T54IR-ZE-S3

16384 kbps is overkill. You would have to use tool like VMAF or similar to see any difference between 4MP 15fps 8192kbps and 4MP 15fps 16384kbps. In blind testing, average human wouldn't know which is which.
HikVision recommends 4096 at 4MP and 15fps, with 20-30% increase for complex scenes you are at 6144. There's no reason to go beyond 8192kbps at 15fps. If you have above average vision and display to go with, maybe 10240.

While true for most eyes, there are instances we have seen like lots of gravel or leaves, where the extra bit rate is needed simply to process the image effectively.

Below 8192 the image becomes a big mess, lots of leaves. It may have been a page before, but the reason I was running so high, is because I could. It let me go that high, so why not? Storage was not and is still not a concern

Currently running 12288 and it looks SIGNIFICANTLY better than 8192, especially when all the leaves are moving

So far so good on the new camera, will wait a few days before really calling this solved
