I've bought a Hikvision 2CD2342WD-I and setup main stream as H264 with 1920x1080px/16fps and the sub stream is setup as MJPEG with 640x360px/8fps. Both streams are added as monitors:
Monitor 1: Remote, MODECT, HTTP
Monitor 2: Remote, NODECT, RTSP and linked to Monitor 1
As I can see monitor 1 consumes ~10% CPU which is great for my low cost hardware and monitor 2 takes ~85% CPU. All the time. I thought monitor 2 is only triggered when monitor 1 detects motion? But it seems always active. Is there no way to reduce load?
