Visual Timeline

When video feeds are pulled for playback, footage timelines are compiled at the bottom of the screen in a unified visual timeline for
both Unsynchronized and Synchronized video streams. The camera names are listed to the left of the timeline. Time-stamps for the
footage are displayed above the timeline to the left and right edges.

Note:

All Synchronized playback stream's share a set of Playback Controls which are located in the Synchronized Visual

Timeline bar. These control all currently synchronized playback streams.

Playback Controls for unsynchronized playback footage are located directly in the individual playback stream's window and
control only that selected stream.

A yellow slide-bar shows the current position in playback.Click on a position in the timeline to reposition the orange slide-bar and
move to a different point in the video clip(s). Moving the slidebar in the Synchronized Visual Timeline will adjust all synchronized
playback stream footage.

In the Synchronized Visual Timeline, the timestamp for the current playback position is displayed below the timeline.Timestamps
for unsynchronized playback streams are displayed in the bottom edge playback controls of each invidual stream. If Default Syn-
chronized Playback
is disabled, the visual timeline will only appear when one or more streams has been added to the synchronization

pool. Click the

or

button on either to hide/reveal the correpsonding visual timeline.

9.5.2 Controlling Playback Video with Digital PTZ:

Cameras can be controlled during playback using the digital PTZ camera control just like in a Live Viewer Window. Because digital
PTZ controls the camera through the software, it can be used for both live and playback video. The digital PTZ controls will work for
every camera that is loaded for playback regardless of the camera control type specified in the settings.
