# Introduction

## Brief Introduction

Thanks for purchasing our products. The video encoder is mainly used for CCTV surveillance, IPTV live broadcast, WeMedia broadcast, major sports broadcast, remote teaching, tele-medicine, wedding ceremonies, video conference etc. It adopts high performance SOC which is capable of collection, compression and transmission of video and audio together. Integrated with H.265 video encoding algorithm, it can be better to transmit and save the videos by halving storage space and bandwidth. The embedded web server allows users to easily monitor and remotely control front-end video from browsers like IE, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari etc. If possible, it’s recommended to use Google Chrome directly.

The tested streaming media servers include Tencent Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, Baidu Cloud, 163Yun, QINIU, AUDIANYUN, LE Cloud, MUDU.TV, Youtube and Wowza etc. It’s compatible with Hikvision’s NVR & CMS (iVMS-4200) and Dahua’s NVR & CMS (SmartPSS) by private protocols. Video protocols like TS stream, RTMP, HTTP, RTSP and ONVIF are all supported. It also supports AAC、G.711U and G.711A audio encoding.
