Playback:
Playback is used to view recorded footage. If a video clip was previously saved you can also use the Playback menu to be used as a video player; this method requires the file to be in it's native format,
Searching Video:
To search for footage you will first have to select the camera(s) where you're looking for footage. By default, the software will search for all record types. You can change this by specifying motion, IVS, etc. Once the search parameters are configured select the time and a calendar will open. Days that are highlighted in green are days where footage was found. Select a start time and an end time then proceed by clicking OK then search. Shortly after search is clicked, a timeline will appear at the bottom of the camera grid. This timeline is how you will navigate the footage. Click anywhere within the colored bar to start playing footage. You can zoom in for more precision by using the mouse wheel while hovering over the timeline. The Playback menu offers controls to navigate the footage which are located at the bottom of the video:
- Export Progress - If a video was being downloaded you can view the progress here
