Misc. 
You allows setting some miscellaneous
features.
Enable Instant Recording Hot-Key: This
determines whether or not recording can be
started by double-clicking a camera/view
during sequential viewing.
Alternative: You can also start a manual/instant
recording by selecting the camera "ID" number under
"Recording" (on the right-hand side of the Video Server
desktop).
Enable Instant Playback: This determines
whether or not a manual/instant or scheduled
recording can be interrupted for immediate
playback.
Note: Playing a file while it is being recorded closes
the present file (to allow it to be played-back), and starts
a new recording file. Alarm recordings cannot be
interrupted in this way.
