Digital Zoom in Exported Evidence
If you are going to export evidence (see page 89) in AVI or JPEG formats, you will be able to select
whether to export the regular images or the digitally zoomed images. If exporting in the database
format, it will not be necessary to make such a selection as recipients will be able to use digital
zoom on the exported recordings.
Digital Zoom in Printed Evidence
If you print (see page 85) an image on which you have used digital zoom, the digitally zoomed
area of the image will be printed.
Fisheye 360° Images
Fisheye is a technology allowing creation and viewing of 360-degree panoramic images; it requires
either a dedicated fisheye camera or a regular camera equipped with a special fisheye lens. If your
views include fisheye cameras, you can navigate recorded images from the fisheye cameras with
the Browse tab's PTZ Control section.
Note: Use of fisheye cameras is not supported by all Milestone surveillance systems. Ask your
surveillance system administrator if in doubt.
Navigation by Dragging Inside Fisheye Images
You can often navigate fisheye images by dragging inside them. If your mouse pointer
changes to a crosshairs shape when placed over the images from a fisheye camera,
navigation by dragging is supported for the camera. Refer to the release notes for
information about supported features for individual fisheye cameras.
Navigation Buttons
As an alternative to navigation by dragging inside fisheye
images, use the navigation buttons in the PTZ Control
section to move around the view from the selected fisheye
camera. The round middle button lets you quickly move
the camera to its home (i.e. default) position. The plus and
minus buttons lets you zoom in and out respectively.
Tip: If you mouse has a scroll wheel, you can also use
the scroll wheel to control the zoom level. On many mice, clicking the scroll wheel or middle mouse
button quickly lets you view the whole image again.
Presets
The Presets list is not available for navigating fisheye images.
Defining a Favorite Fisheye Position
You are able to move to a specific position in the fisheye view, and then save that position by
clicking the Save button. When you later want to return to the saved position, click the Load
button.
