3.6.2 Search & play controls
The Playback control allows searching, zooming the playback time
frame, navigating and playing forward and backwards any recorded
video.
The top level button controls are the same as a standard video or
media player to allow seeking the video up to the beginning or to the
end of all the recorded periods. Fast forward and backward are
available too. Each device offers a different maximum speed.
The option “Instant search” allows to locate a specific timestamp to
start playback operations.
When the “Show recordings” and the “Show events” options are
checked, the recordings and the events respectively are shown in the
Search Control. These two options are only enabled when no playback
is being performed.
When the “Keep current playback time into view” option is checked,
the Search Control will always show the current date and time in the
timeline.
The Search control provides information about the recorded periods and the events.
To fine tune the search through the timeframe slide bar, you can zoom-in and zoom-out it by moving the zoom
slide bar. While moving, pay attention to the timeframe start and end date. After zooming the timeframe you
can move smoothly the slide bar.
Through the current playback time slide bar you can seek any recorded period and start playing in any direction.
In certain devices, by moving the slide bar, Nethunter will seek the closest recorded period to the selected
timestamp.
When moving the mouse over the events, detailed info about the events will be shown in a pop-up window.
NOTE
In order to see the events of any device, the “Get events” command must be executed previously on that device. This requirement does not
apply on NVVR devices.
When clicking on “Show events” not all the events are shown in the Search Control but only the next 10000 events in the next 24 hours after the
current playback time.
NOTE
Each device publishes different recording and event information.
Regarding recordings, the NVVR publishes all the recorded periods. However, the rest devices only publish the start and the end period.
Regarding events, each device has different event categorization and internal codes. The shown events in the Search Control are “Alarm
received”, “Start recording” and “Settings changed” (the last one only on the NVVR).
