Situation
You have selected a Video Window in which to initiate
Record Now
but the menu option is not available.
Solution

Edit Camera Server
dialog,
‘Do not Record’ is probably set up for the camera. Change the option to
record to the Storage Server.
Cannot configure camera not to record.
Situation
You have attempted to modify a camera and set ‘Do not record’ in the
Edit

dialog. A message appears stating the camera is already
set up without recording.

Camera Server
list of the
Storage and Camera Server Summary
screen,
Locations / Zones
tab, the selected camera will have more than
one listing. Click the listing which has an associated Storage Server listed
beside it and then click
Remove Camera Server
. Make sure you save
your changes to permanently remove the deleted camera.
Timeline
The following issues may arise during normal operation of the Timeline in the Viewer:

Move the Playhead away from the Live position. Playback controls will then
be active. A Video Window needs to be selected for playback. Also, the
nudge buttons and the Extract Video button are only enabled when only
one Video Window is selected.
Extracting Video
The following may arise during video extraction:
Cannot save video as no data could be found.

video can be found in the selected segment.
