Preview
The preview window displays a low-framerate representation of the incoming video stream. With these
buttons, you can select the frequency with which the picture will be updated. Spot
will load a single frame
about every 30 seconds, while Low
, Med,
and High
will load frames at different speeds, respectively; it will not
be a real time picture, however, and if bandwidth limitations affect the preview, it will load fewer frames.
Furthermore, this compressed image will not have the full quality of the stream being sent.
Annotation
The Annotation feature allows users to draw on an overlay of the current image in order to indicate areas and
directions to other viewers of the Annotations who are also viewing the Decoder Preview. Click Annotate to
pop up the Annotation window. In the example below, a tablet user was able to draw and write on a frame of
the video.
