Differences H.265 and H.264

Differences between H.265 and H.264



A codec is an encoder and a decoder. An encoder compresses audio or video so it takes up less disk space. A decoder extracts audio or video information from the compressed file. Video and audio compression is a complex technical process, but the basic aim of a codec is quite straightforward:

(a) Reduce the size of the compressed media file as much as possible, but...(b) Keep the quality of the decoded audio and video as good as possible.

What is H.264?
H264 (aka MPEG-4 AVC) is currently a mainstream video compression format. It is widely used in Blu-ray discs, internet sources like videos in YouTube and iTunes Store, web software, and also HDTV broadcasts over terrestrial, cable and satellite.

What is H.265?
H.265 (also known as HEVC, short for High Efficiency Video Coding, developed by the Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding (JCT-VC)) is a video compression standard whose predecessor is H.264/MPEG-4 AVC. H.265 HEVC ensures to deliver video quality identical to H.264 AVC at only half the bit rate, including better compression, delicate image and bandwidth saving. It Support up to 8K, Support up to 300 fps. It is likely to implement Ultra HD, 2K, 4K for Broadcast and Online (OTT).

H.265 vs H.264: Differences between H.265 and H.264

In general, H.265 has several big advantages over H.264, including better compression, delicate image and bandwidth saving. For more detailed differences, please read H.265 vs H.264 comparison table.

Simple Ways to Clean your Camera Lens

Three Simple Ways to Clean your Camera Lens

Dust, rain, and bugs can have a great impact on the quality of your camera’s picture, but with the following easy tips, you can keep the image quality looking great throughout the life of your security camera.
1. Distilled Water – Put some distilled water into a squeeze bottle with small tip. You’ll want to gently apply some water droplets, and then blot gently with lens tissue or another clean, lint-free, scratch-free material.
2. Baby Shampoo – A mild surfactant like Johnson’s baby shampoo (diluted with water) lightly applied to the glass and blotted dry is a great way to remove dust, spider webs, and oil compounds from areas that create steam from oil based foods.
3. Hot Air – By using a hair dryer to a dry lens you are heating up the glass to a point where the molecules are now looser and easier to remove.  The reason why waxing a car is such a chore is the effort needed to create heat by rubbing the surface to warm up the compounds so they can be removed.  A simple hair dryer to a lint free cloth can do the trick for minor cleaning needs.

HD-TVI, HD-CVI, HD-SDI, HD-AHD, Analog & IP Camera

HD-TVI, HD-CVI, HD-SDI, AHD, Analog & IP Camera
Even we enter into digital era, analog surveillance technology doesn't stop its innovation. Besides the HD-SDI and HD-CVI (in house technology of Dahua), today the Hikvision and other camera manufacturers announce HD-TVI cameras release.  HD-TVI means High Definition Transport Video Interface,  HD-TVI is based on traditional coaxial cable for video and data transmission, it supports not only 720P/1080P video signal, but also including audio, data signal over long distance up to 500 meters.

At present, there are approximate 100 million coaxial cables are deployed for analog camera connection. In the next 3-5 years, they will be replaced with high definition camera. However, some users start to worry they have to rewire, re-install or add new network devices for upgrading. This group of users prefer the economical and easy solution to upgrade existing system to HD, rather than adopting the IP camera. In this context, the HD-SDI and HD-TVI technologies were born.

HD-TVI advantages

500 meters long range video transmission:-
As we know, HD-SDI and conventional analog solutions only has limited 100 meters video transmission. Additionally, the cost of HD-SDI equipment is more expensive. The HDTVI technology (HikVision) offers long range distance video transmission at 1080P/720P through coaxial cable.  The cost of HD-TVI products is very affordable, permit users upgrade the system with minimum investment. This makes HDTVI become a perfect solution to fit all analog surveillance applications. Furthermore, the new HDTVI technology support UTC function which can allow user to remotely control the OSD menu and PTZ control via coaxial cable. This means user can quickly install and adjust the camera without accessing the camera itself.

Analog high definition resolution at 720P/1080P:-
Similar to HD-CVI (in house technology from Dahua) and HD-SDI, the new HDTVI cameras can deliver real time 720P/1080P HD resolution video without video latency. The HDTVI DVRs support full time 720P/180P video recording and playback. Through using HDTVI compatible cameras and DVRs, user can setup a complete new HD analog surveillance system or easily upgrade the existing conventional analog system to HD surveillance system.
HDTVI Camera with CS 12mm lens,
Broad manufacturers to offer great compatibility:-
HDTVI equipment is HDTVI open standard, which guarantees trouble-free connection to other HDTVI-compliant cameras and DVRs. By the way, the new designed HDTVI DVR also can support traditional standard video camera for offering great flexibility.  All HDTVI HD cameras can access third party DVRs equipped with HDTVI technology from other manufacturers. The main HDTVI members including TVT, Hikvision, Hisharp, Unifore, LSVT...etc.

HD-TVI vs Analog


In summary, the advantage of HD-TVI compared with Analogue is:
1.       HD resolution on 720P/1080P at 25/30fps
2.       Long distance transmission for HD video
3.       No video quality loss and delay for transmission

HD-TVI vs HD-CVI 

Obviously, HD-TVI and HD-CVI have very similar features, both of them can provide analog high definition solutions. HD-TVI derives from American based company that does not supply to only one manufacturer. Therefore we are expecting many analog camera manufacturers will release wide range of HD-TVI based cameras to market. Therefore, HD-TVI is more likely to become an industry standard, not a proprietary technology/solution.

HD-SDI vs HD-CVI 

HD-TVI vs HD-SDI 

In conclusion, compared with HD-SDI, new HD solution with advantages of:
1.       Longer video transmission distance up to 1000ft (300m) over regular coaxial cable
2.       700ft (200m) distance for video transmission over UTP (Cat5, twisted cable)
3.       More cheaper price for analog HD system
4.       Support twisted cable installation

HD-TVI vs IP Camera

Hence, compared with IPC, the advantages of HD-TVI are
1.       No network bandwidth requirement/influence
2.       No network configuration, as easy as analog system
3.       No video quality loss and compression
4.       No video latency issue, real time live-view
5.       Long video transmission distance
6.       More affordable price for camera and video storage devices

AHD advantages

A new kind of camera: AHD Camera (Analog high definition)/HD-AHD is developing so soon in the market now.
The price is similar as Analog camera and the image effect is similar as digital camera!
The Advantages of AHD Camera:
1) AHD Camera can link with general DVR and the resolution is looks like 1000tvl analog cameras.
2) AHD Camera can link with AHD DVR, and the resolution is Megapixel High Definition ( Now have 1MP, 1.3MP already).
3) Transmit by Coaxial cable-500m!!
4) The price is similar as Analog system no matter considering DVR or camera.

HD-CVI cameras vs HD-AHD cameras

1.       1.0 megapixel AHD camera adopts OV9712 + NVP2431H solution (CMOS Chip: OV9712 & DSP Chips : Nextchip NVP2431H), while HD-CVI camera adopts the PO3100K + DH9801 solution. In addition to the difference of solution, the price vary greatly, OV9712 + NVP2431 of AHD camera module only costs US$7.5, and PO3100K + DH9801 camera module costs approximate US$11.
2.       AHD camera can connect to CRT display directly, the image can display properly. HD-CVI camera connects to traditional CRT, it doesn't show images. For video live view/recording/playback, HD-CVI cameras need to work with HD-CVI DVR. It seems, the HD-AHD cameras support 960H output mode, which is very convenient for test and installation. Since the AHD cameras can be backward compatible with all traditional analog equipment. Compared with HD-CVI, it has advantages of great compatibility.
3.       Competiable with normal D1 / 960H, and analog peripherals (including distributors, matrix, etc.). Switch AHD, IP and Anolog video signal from AHD DVR in no time.
4.       Strong anti-interference capability & solid interface protection that can avoid space high frequency electromagnetic radiation to ensure a constant signal transmission of high definition video display without problems as frame drop and lock loss occurred.

HDCVI Vs HD-SDI & IP

HDCVI Vs HD-SDI & IP

HDCVI Vs HD-SDI
Longer Transmission Distance:-
Both HDCVI and HD-SDI can transfer HD signal @720p/1080p, but HDCVI has a distinguished advantage at the transmission distance.
With general transmission media, HD-SDI reaches 100 meters at most while HDCVI, at least, transmits 500 meters by using 75-3 cable and featuring low signal distortion rate.
Better Anti-Interference Capability:
The anti-interference capability of HD-SDI solution is relatively poor when been placed against high-frequent radiation environment, which could lead to higher bit error ratio while the HDCVI adopts low-frequency modulation technology, making it free from the high-frequency wireless electric radiation to ensure stable video transmission at high image quality.
HDCVI Vs IP

Reliability:
HDCVI adopts P2P transmission to ensure a smooth and reliable transmission; while the transmission of network camera is based on Ethernet and thus may lead to network jitter and packet loss.

Real-time:
The network HD features video bu­ffer technology and the delay is controlled within 300 milliseconds in the general and fair networking environment; However, HDCVI features no latency capability for an outstanding real-time performance.

No Compression:
For HDCVI, there is no compression processed to maintain its original e­ect and thus present in vivid image quality.
Benefits of HDCVI Technology:-

Lower Cost:-
Unlike HD-SDI, which posts high demands on cabling and installation; HDCVI solution inherits the same installing means of conventional analog solutions, which is of great convenience and also decrease the cost.

Smart Control:-
As HDCVI transmits multiple-signal (video/audio and dual-way data) over one cable, it realizes video/audio synchronized transmission and reverse-signal transmission control at the same time, such as PTZ and zoom control; which further simpli‑es the installation.

Where To Use HDCVI CCTV?
HDCVI Cameras very useful where HighDefinition CCTV Cameras require at Lowcosts and all areas like Banks, Hotels, Restaurants, Residential Buildings, Apartments, Flats, Police Stations, Public Areas, Various Government Sectors, Private Sectros, etc.
