Single-channel or Multi-channel
Digital CCTV footage usually contains views from multiple cameras. SiraView enables you to view a
single camera in full-screen mode, or all cameras in multi-channel mode.
Multi-channel mode shows a 4x4 grid of cameras at one time. If there are more than 16 cameras
available in the video you can scroll down to see them all.
You can switch between multi- and single-channel mode by using the
toolbar buttons or by clicking on the video frame.
In single-channel mode you can choose which camera to show by using the camera selection control

Tracks
Some decoders support the notion of “tracks” (e.g. Tecton Darlex). The exact definition of a track
can vary from decoder to decoder, but in general a track can be thought of as a file within a file.
When separate tracks are detected, the track selection control will be visible on the toolbar.
Changing the selected track will return the current time to the start and switch back to multi-channel
mode.
