Example:
If you set the Frame rate option to Low in your XProtect Smart Client, and your system administrator has configured the camera to feed JPEG images at a frame rate of 20 frames per second, you will experience an average of 1 frame per second when viewing video from the camera. If your system administrator then configures the camera with a feed as low as 4 frames per second, you will experience an average of 0,2 frames per second when viewing video from the camera.
