The Speed Control is a vertical tracking 
control on the right side of the display 
window. This is used to set the 
playback rate. Because this is a time-
lapse video, the playback rate has to be 
different from the recording rate.
Note that in some installations, if the 
requested playback rate exceeds the 
host PC’s ability to decompress and 
display frames, some frames may be 
skipped in order to keep up with the 
requested time-lapse video rate.
For a mode in which frames will never 
be skipped, read about the Motion 
Search feature, described below.
Controls are enabled or grayed-out, depending on 
their functionality. For example, while playing the 
video forward or backward the single-step buttons 
are grayed out.
The forward play control functions is the 
same as the play control on most media 
players. Pressing this button with the 
mouse causes the player to continuously 
display frames until the end of the 
sequence is reached, or the stop or pause 
control is pressed.
The reverse play control causes the 
player to play in reverse until either the 
beginning of the sequence is reached, or 
the stop or pause control is pressed.
Pressing this control causes the player to 
display the next frame in the sequence.
Pressing this control causes the player 
to display the previous frame in the 
sequence.
Pressing this control during play stops the 
player at the current frame. In Pause mode, 
single step forward and backward are 
enabled.
Pressing this control during play stops the 
player, and returns it to the first frame of 
the sequence. Single-step forward function 
is enabled.
When the player is in Pause or Stop mode, the 
seek control is displayed. This can be used to seek 
any point in the sequence, either by watching the 
images in the display window, or by monitoring 
the elapsed time or real-time indicators. 
• During play mode, the seek control is concealed.
