The thumbnail overview display content chronologically from left to right, with the most recent
thumbnails towards the bottom right part of the view:
You can adjust the size of the thumbnails by dragging the Size Slider below the thumbnail overview:
The thumbnails can relate to an individual selected camera or several selected cameras in a view. The
fact that you can compare the thumbnails side-by-side, while navigating in time by dragging the
thumbnail overview, enables you to look at large amounts of recorded video and identify the most
relevant video, which you can then immediately play back.
To view video associated with a particular thumbnail, click the thumbnail. When you click a thumbnail,
it becomes highlighted and (provided Autoplay is selected) the associated sequence is played back in
the right side of the Sequence Explorer.
Tip: If you have clicked a thumbnail, and then navigated away from it by dragging the thumbnail
overview left or right, you can quickly return to the selected thumbnail by clicking the refresh button.
The thumbnail overview only shows recording within the time interval you have specified. Unless you
have selected to view all sequences, you can navigate the timespan backward or forward by placing
the mouse in the left or right side of the thumbnail overview.
Thumbnail overview navigation
You can navigate forward and backward in time by dragging the thumbnail overview left or right, or
you can use the navigation controls below the thumbnail overview.
