Encoding
These options are used to adjust the encoding level in terms of
compression and color depth. They are available only when
"Transmission Encoding" is determined manually (select
Manually
in
KVM Settings > User Console > Transmission Encoding
of
web page).
Compression Level
You may select a value between 1 and 9 for the desired compression
level with level 1 enabling the fastest compression and level 9 the best
compression. The most suitable compression level should always be
seen as a compromise between the network bandwidth that is available,
on your video picture to be transferred, and on the number of changes
between two single video pictures. We recommend to use a higher
compression level if the network bandwidth is low. The higher the
compression level the more time is needed to pack and unpack the
video data on either side of the connection. The compression quality
depends on the video picture itself, e.g. the number of the colors or the
diversity of pixels. The lower the compression quality, the more data
have to be sent and the longer it may take to transfer the whole video
picture.
If level 0 is chosen the video compression is disabled, completely.
