The parameters in this section configure the number of processing channels HPE Media Server requests from your License Server. You might want to restrict the number of processing channels if you have multiple HPE Media Servers.
Channel Type | Permitted Operations | Allocating Channels |
---|---|---|
VisualChannels |
A visual channel also includes all surveillance features, and all video management features. The only operations not included in a visual channel are those for audio processing. |
Allocate one channel for each concurrent For example, to run OCR or object recognition on one video stream, set |
SurveillanceChannels |
A surveillance channel also includes all video management features. The following features are included if they are used with face detection, ANPR, scene analysis, or text detection:
|
Allocate one channel for each analysis task, multiplied by the number of concurrent To run face detection and face recognition on the video from one camera, you can set You cannot accelerate processing using a GPU and use surveillance channels on the same server. To accelerate processing with a GPU, use visual channels rather than surveillance channels. |
AudioChannels |
An audio channel also includes all video management features. |
Allocate one channel for each concurrent process action that includes audio processing. For example, if you want to run object recognition, language identification, and speech-to-text on one video stream, set VisualChannels=1 and AudioChannels=1 . |
VideoManagementChannels |
|
Allocate one video management channel for each concurrent Visual, surveillance, and audio channels all include these operations, so you do not need to allocate a video management channel for any action that is already allocated another type of channel. |
