It is possible to override the default image quality for a single item in layout to high- or low-resolution playback.
This is useful, for example, when you need to save CPU usage by the client (in which case you would force the playback setting to low-resolution), or to enhance image quality for a given item (in which case you would force the setting to high-resolution). Note that because this setting is saved for each item individually, it is possible to have the same device playing back at a different resolution in different layout items.
This setting overrides the setting for the entire layout (controlled using Viewing Grid context menu -> Resolution) and is saved when the layout is saved. However, Fullscreen Mode will always display an item using the highest possible image quality.
Note: Image quality settings depend on the camera's secondary stream settings (see "Adjusting Secondary Stream Quality").
To specify item playback resolution
1.Right-click on the item in layout to open the context menu and choose Resolution.
2.The default is Auto. Select High or Low.
3.Click the information icon or use the item context menu Show Info (shortcut Alt+I) to confirm the setting (see "Image Display Controls").
See "Setting layout resolution manually" as well.
