Playback - Q-See QS SERIES Setup Manual

PLAYBACK

Along with viewing live feeds from your system, the playback feature is the other major
function of QS View. This function only operates in portrait mode. Only a single video may be
played back at a time.
Selecting Playback brings up a window
showing your options. You can play back
video recorded on the DVR (remote) or local
video which was recorded onto your device
by tapping on the Record button in Live
View. On Android devices, you may also view
the still images taken using the Snapshot
button in Live View using the Image View
function. Although this last option is shown as
Capture View in the iPhone/iPad version of
QS View, the images are automatically saved
to your device's Photos folder so this feature
is not functional.
Select the type of playback you wish to
perform and the appropriate window will
open.
Remote Playback
You are able to access - and view - videos
recorded onto your DVR's hard drive from
your mobile device. When you select Remote
Playback, a calendar will appear showing the
current date. If that date has recorded files,
they will automatically appear in the list below
the Calendar. Dates with recorded video will
be shown in blue.
You may select a different date and which
channel(s) to search. The file list will show the
start and end times, along with which channel
made the recording. Double-tap upon a file to
begin playback.

The playback controls are straightforward.
In addition to playing the video at normal
speed, the arrows to either side of the Play/
Pause button allow you to speed up or slow
down playback by a factor of two (1/2x to 2x
normal speed).
The Snapshot button allows you to capture
a still image from the recorded video. This
image will be saved in the same location as
snapshots taken from live video - in Photos
on the iPhone or iPad and within a folder
labeled Streaming on the SD card in Android
devices.
Volume allows you to mute any included
audio stream.
Tap on Playback in the upper left to return to
the list of videos.
Local Playback
Local files are videos recorded onto your
mobile device when you press the Record
button during Live View. Video from all
cameras will be recorded when you select
this operation.
Playback operates in exactly the same
manner as with remote playback.
Tap on Local Playback in the upper right to
return to the list of files.
You may double-tap on a video to begin
playing it, or you may tap on the arrow at the
far right.
To delete a video, simply touch and drag
within the white area to the right of the
file name and a Delete button will appear,
allowing you to remove the file from the list.
Image Playback
Available only on the Android version of QS View, Image Playback allows you to review still
images captured from Live or Playback video. These files are located on your device's SD card
in a folder named Streaming where they may be copied, sent or deleted.
