ASUS VideoSecurity
The ASUS VideoSecurity is a powerful security utility that detects any
change in a specified surveillance region. Using video capture devices,
video snapshots are captured automatically when there is a deviation in
the user-defined surveillance region. The utility can also execute a specific
program or send a warning message to the user via email or phone.
2.1 Limitations
Differences in hardware sensitivity can affect the consistency of the ASUS
VideoSecurity utility in detecting a surveillance region.
Important notes
Temperature changes can distort the captured image of some
Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) cameras.
A similar object surface and background can result in a false scan.
A USB camera cannot capture fast moving objects clearly.
ASUS VideoSecurity can only process the following pixel formats:
UYVY, YUY2, and I420. Use a video capture device that supports
these formats.
Make sure to install the Windows Driver Model (WDM) capture
driver.
If you want to use the email warning feature, make sure you have
an Internet connection.
If you want to use the phone call warning feature, make sure a
voice modem and telephone line are available.
