Instant Replay
If a camera is currently recording to the NVR, then a Replay button will be available at the
lower left corner of its view cell. This allows you to immediately retrieve the video recording in
the past 30 seconds.
The Instant Replay function enables you to quickly retrieve videos of what has just happened (20
seconds to 15 minutes ago), without the need to open the Playback utility for the past videos.
Prerequisites for Instant Replay:
1. The function is enabled by default, only available on a LiveClient installed on a PC.
2. There must be recorded videos of the immediate past. If the video streams from a camera
were not recorded, you can not retrieve videos using the Instant Replay function.
NOTE:
1. When using the Instant Replay function and you change the stream number on a video cell,
the Instant Replay will be interrupted.
2. The Instant Replay will also be interrupted when the time comes for a rotation of Live View
pages. For example, if you have multiple Live View pages and you set up a rotation of these
pages by every 10 seconds, page swap (rotation) still has a higher priority even if you are
viewing the Instant Replay.
How to Use:
1. On a selected view cell, mouse over to the lower left corner. A Replay icon
will appear.
2. Click on it to display the Replay control bar. Click on the play button.
3. The default queue length is 30 seconds. You can click on the number on the right to change
the queue length.
4. To stop the Replay and return to the Live View, click on the Return to Live button.
5. On a Replay view cell, you can apply the same Snapshot, Print, Single view and Full screen
control as those on a normal view cell. You can also right-click to display the Display Mode
and Video Enhancement functions.
Click and drag the playhead to skip or move to a different point in time on the playback.
The queue length configuration stays with the
view cell, and it will not go unless you remove
and insert the camera again.
