5. Adjust the Sensitivity slider to indicate how much of a block must change from one frame to the next for it to
be considered in the Number of Blocks equation. For example, if you chose a sensitivity of 30%, only 30
percent of a block would have to change for it to be considered part of a motion event. Thus, if you adjusted
the
Number of Blocks slider to 10 of 20, at least 30 percent of at least 10 of the 20 blocks would have to
change for a frame to be displayed during playback.
6. Click Search . The first frame in which the defined number of blocks change the minimum amount is
displayed. If you begin a SmartSearch in the middle of the video segment, the SmartSearch finds the next
valid motion event; it doesn't begin the search at the beginning of the segment.
After you find a valid motion event, continue playing the video from that point or click Search again to jump to the
next frame that meets the defined parameters.
