Online Search & Playback

Go beyond live Internet viewing. You can now search for and play

video clips from your WiLife Command Center online! Thanks to

WiLife Platinum.

Access your recorded video from a site anywhere and at
any time.

Using a user-friendly search tool and numerous search

criteria options, find video by date, time, site, or
camera.

Create and save custom searches.

Play full video clips.

You can remotely view the video clips at any one of your WiLife

Command Center sites using the Online Search and Playback

page on your WiLife Online Account.

The Online Search and Playback page allows you to browse through video clips or complete a more advanced

search. The page is simple enough to use that you can wade through video until you find something interesting

to watch as you move forward or backward along the timeline of recorded video clips on each Command

Center site. The Search options are robust enough that you can locate videos of a particular interest based on

criteria you specify on a whim or using a previously saved search or quick search. It's perfect for situations

where you have a pretty good idea of what you are looking for.

Complete a quick search. The Search and Playback feature uses "smart" search functionality, allowing you to

not only save and store multiple custom searches, but change them as well. Add more search criteria to saved

searches. In fact, add flags or highlights regarding what is interesting about the video clip (unusually large size,

unusually long duration, and video on either side of such a hit).
Search using criteria based upon the start date/time & end date/time of the video clip; the length of motion;

video "rank"; whether an alert was triggered; protected clips; file size; duration of video clip; Command Center

site; and specific cameras.
Regarding searching for videos, you can search using a Quick Search or an Advanced Search.

The search results automatically include surrounding video clips that were recorded right before and

after the video clip resulting from the search, regardless of search results. This is true for the
camera(s) involved in the search.

You can save a search for future use. (If you save a search, you will be required to give the search a
name.)

An Automatic Update property exists so WiLife Online updates the list of video clips from your

Command Center. Choose between 5, 10, or 30 minutes, etc. updates.
