Chapter 3 Client Performance
This chapter covers the performance specifications for HikCentral Professional clients.
3.1 Decoding Performance
Notes:
- The performance refers to maximum live view channels within up to 80% of CPU consumption (software decoding) or up to 80% of video engine load/decoding value (hardware decoding).
- You can switch to hardware decoding on the System page. If the OS of your PC is Windows 7, make sure DirectX (D3DX9_43.dll and D3DCompiler_43.dll) have been installed, or the hardware decoding will fail and it will switch to software decoding. To realize hardware decoding and reach the following maximum decoding performance, download and install DirectX.
