  • Page 4 Preface This document is for VMS to support JVC new cameras, VN-H37/137/237. If VMS supports only streaming, i.e. VMS does not have camera setting pages, the chapter "Streaming Protocol" provides how to get stream from a camera. If VMS have setting page of the camera, focusing on necessary functionalities is recommended.

    1. Streaming Protocol - Both JVC protocol and standard RTSP/RTP are supported. - JPEG, H.264 baseline profile, and H.264 high profile are supported. MPEG-4 will be supported in future. - Maximum resolution is 1920x1080. - VN-H series can send 3 different resolution streams of JPEG simultaneously.
