General Playback View ControlsRecorded clips cannot only be played in the player, but they can also be searched. The way that you search depends on whether you want to search for specific events within the recorded clips or whether you want to search for events at specific times.
General Playback View Controls
To search and play back recordings, first activate Playback mode 
or select the date and time and then use the Previous/Next Image buttons 
, to browse the recordings; alternatively, you can start the playback using the Forward/Backward Playback buttons 
. Hold the Forward/Backward Playback to select a playback speed between 0.5 times and maximum.
General Operation Of The Playback View For MOBOTIX MOVE And ONVIF Cameras
Not all playback capabilities are supported by MOBOTIX MOVE cameras and third-party cameras that provide an ONVIF S-compatible interface. For these cameras, recordings can only be played forward.
Therefore, first select Date/Time (1), and then start playback using Forward Playback (2).
Performing PTZ Actions In Recordings
Note: On a secondary monitor, a single camera image can only be zoomed with the mouse wheel or panned with the mouse button pressed down. PTZ controls are only available on the MxMC main screen or on the secondary monitor in Grid View.
You can zoom and move the visible image area not only in live images but also in recorded images (PTZ). This enables you to examine specific image areas more closely while the recorded video stream is playing back. On Dual cameras, the program also shows the 
slider. Use this slider to show the images of either the right, the left or both image sensors. When playing back the recordings of hemispheric cameras, you can set different display modes 
.
Zooming and Moving Image SectionsYou can zoom using the slider 
or the mouse wheel. To see other image areas, you can move the recorded image using the mouse.
Choosing a Sensor On Dual cameras, you can opt to see the recordings of the right, the left or both image sensors. To do so, move the slider to the right to 
(left sensor) or further to the right to 
(right sensor).
Subsequent Distortion Correction Of Hemispherical ImagesWhen showing recorded images of hemispheric cameras or cameras with the lenses L12/B016, L23/B036, L25/B041, you can select different display modes. In order to get naturally-looking images, the camera will automatically correct the distortion in these modes. This distortion correction can be refined even further when using the panorama correction. Note that this type of correction only takes place locally. This means that the distortion correction of the recorded images only takes place on this computer. The stored recordings (from the camera or a file server) are not influenced in any way.
Full image: Shows the entire (distorted) full image.
Normal: Shows a distortion-corrected image and allows executing PTZ actions.
Panorama: This option shows the distortion-corrected image of an entire room (corrected 180° panorama view) from the left to the right wall. The aspect ratio (width to height) is 8:3. 
Surround: This option shows four image sections (one for each cardinal direction: N, E, S, W) in one joint view. Note that you can use PTZ actions to modify all four views independently from one another.
Double panorama: This mode shows a panorama view for the North half of the image and a second panorama view of the South half of the image using an aspect ratio (width to height) of 4:3. This mode only makes sense for a hemispheric camera that is mounted to the ceiling.
Panorama focus: This display mode combines the panorama view (aspect ratio 8:3) with two smaller images (each with aspect ratio 4:3) in one large image.Move the slider to the right until you see the desired view. This slider position will be stored automatically until you change it again.
The distortion-corrected images of the different display modes can be further refined using the panorama correction. Move the slider to the right to 
and use the mouse to correct the image. To store the corrected setting, click on the slider and hold it until the slider icon briefly appears in the center of the image.
Browsing Recordings For Event ImagesWhen searching for event images, first select the image playback type:
Note: This feature is not supported by MOBOTIX MOVE cameras and third-party cameras that provide an ONVIF S-compatible interface. For an overview of how the camera functions differ, see Camera Feature Overview.
(1) and selecting the desired mode (2). and buttons. Starting with the current event image, these buttons show the previous or next event image. Browsing Recordings For A Specific Date And TimeIf you have set up a continuous recording for certain times and you want to check for events during those times, for example, you can limit the search to these times. You can search for events at a given time by using time leaps or time-lapse playback.
..Scenario: Camera A is overlooking the gate and signals an event. The event image in the Alarm bar shows a delivery truck driving through the gate. You want to know if the truck has also passed the area monitored by camera B.
.
You want to know if other cameras have recorded something at a specific point in time:
Limiting The Search Range For An IncidentScenario: Your camera monitors a parking lot from which a car had been stolen during the day. Follow these steps to locate the event as quickly as possible:
) and select an interval (e.g., 1 day 
). until the car can be seen again in the image.
). until the car has left the frame.Note that you can also use the Forward/Backward Playback buttons to play back using the same time leaps.
Note: This feature is not supported by MOBOTIX MOVE cameras and third-party cameras that provide an ONVIF S-compatible interface. For an overview of how the camera functions differ, see Camera Feature Overview.
Playing Back RecordingsTo play the clips, the play buttons 
and the
playback mode are available in the Command bar of the Playback view. First set the desired mode for
playing the recordings, such as event images only or with one hour time-lapse, in the Playback mode.
Next, use the Playback Buttons to browse and play back the images one-by-one or continuously in backward or forward direction.
Note: As mentioned in General Operation Of The Playback View For MOBOTIX MOVE And ONVIF Cameras, playback of recordings is limited when using MOBOTIX MOVE cameras and third-party cameras that provide an ONVIF S-compatible interface. Recordings of these cameras can only be played forward. For an overview of how the camera functions differ, see Camera Feature Overview.
The following table summarizes the actions that you can perform with the playback buttons, depending on the playback mode:
