Comment (by danielk):

 Gregorio, it looks like NVR is using encoding for the same thing that
 request_recording is used for elsewhere. The proper thing to do is
 probably to change NVR to use request_recording instead of the encoding
 variable. But until then you can also just add "request_recording = true;"
 right after each "encoding = true;" line in NuppelVideoRecorder.cpp

 Yianny, I think you are encountering a different issue. The mpeg-4 profile
 has some options that make it use a lot of CPU. If you run out of headroom
 the recorder will just dump frames, it doesn't try to switch off the high
 CPU options or buffer up a lot of frames to smooth over short term
 encoding delays. Since the NVR is a legacy recorder this is unlikely to
 get addressed anytime soon.
