Playback functionality 
The recorder lets you quickly locate and play back recorded video. There are three 
ways to play back video: 
  Instant playback of the most recently recorded video 
  24-hour playback of one day’s recorded video 
  Search video by specific time, events, motion detection, bookmarks, or snapshots 
(see Chapter 6 “Searching files” on page 36 for further information) 
The recorder continues to record the live view from a camera while simultaneously 
playing back video on that camera display. You must have the access privilege to play 
back recordings (see “Customize a user’s access privileges” on page 132 for more 
information).
 
Instant playback  
Use the live view toolbar to perform instant replay of a predefined period (default time is 
five minutes). This can be useful to review an event that has just happened. Only one 
camera at a time can be selected.  
You can modify the playback period in the Playback Duration menu. See page 42 for 
further information. 
To instantly replay recorded video: 
1.  In live view mode, left-click the mouse on the desired camera image. The live view 
toolbar appears. Click the Instant Playback icon  .  
Note: You will be asked to enter the Admin password. 
2.  Click the Channel icon   and select the desired camera from the drop-down list. 
Click OK. 
Playback starts immediately. The Instant Playback scroll bar appears under the 
selected camera.
