If the camera is viewed in two views the server will send two streams and each of the streams are trans-coded. There are two trans-coding jobs if the camera is used twice.
It is very much recommended not to use server-side transcoding, try to see if you can avoid it completely.
If you like more information or advise on implementing ways to avoid the server-side trans-coding please add a little information..
Are you using Smart Clients or a MIP SDK based integration?
If doing development work with the MIP SDK, are you using the MIP Library or Image Server protocol? (Please outline how you get the video.)
