For compatible surveillance deployments, AV1 provides an additional compression option for managing increasing video resolution, network traffic and recording workloads.
Its role is focused on video compression efficiency across the video path, from encoding and transmission to recording and playback.
AV1 analyzes video information and reduces redundant data while retaining the visual information required for viewing and recording.
Efficient encoded streams can help reduce network traffic between compatible cameras, recording systems and viewing endpoints.
More efficient compression can reduce recorded data volumes under comparable conditions and improve use of available storage capacity.
Helps reduce bandwidth requirements for compatible encoded video streams.
Helps reduce recorded data volumes and make more efficient use of storage resources.
Designed for efficient handling of modern high-quality and high-resolution video.
Supports efficient resource planning as camera counts and video workloads increase.
AV1: High-efficiency video compression for compatible video workflows.
H.265: Efficient compression widely used in current high-resolution surveillance systems.
H.264: Broadly supported across devices, software platforms and existing infrastructure.
System: SupportVerify the camera, recorder, VMS and viewing endpoint for the intended configuration.
AV1, or AOMedia Video 1, is an open video codec designed to provide efficient compression of high-quality video.
Efficient compression can help manage bandwidth and storage requirements as video resolution, camera counts and recording workloads increase.
Not necessarily. Codec selection depends on compression requirements, device support, software compatibility and the overall system architecture.
No. AV1 availability depends on the specific product model, configuration and firmware version. Refer to current product documentation for supported video codecs.
Components that need to decode, record, play back or display the AV1 stream must provide the required support. Compatibility should be verified across the intended video workflow.
More efficient compression can reduce recorded data volumes under comparable conditions. Actual storage requirements depend on resolution, frame rate, bitrate, scene complexity and recording configuration.
Confirm the exact camera model, firmware version, stream settings, recorder or VMS capability, and the viewing or playback environment for the intended deployment.
