Viewing Webcam Snapshots or Videos
You can switch between snapshots or live videos being captured by a
webcam.
The snapshot or video is displayed either in the PX web interface or in a
Primary Standalone Live Preview window that you open.
You can open a maximum of five Primary Standalone Live Preview
windows.
Note: For remote Live Preview sessions, such as those accessed via a
link in an email or instant message, a total of up to three (3)
simultaneous Live Preview sessions are supported at a time. One (1)
from the originator in the PX interface, and up to two (2) remote sessions.
See
Sending Snapshots or Videos in an Email or Instant Message
(on page 302).
To switch between snapshot and video modes:
1. Click the desired webcam's icon in the navigation tree.
Snapshots or videos captured by the webcam are displayed in the
right pane of the PX web interface once a webcam is selected in the
navigation tree.
Snapshots and videos can also be displayed in Live Preview mode in
the Primary Standalone Live Preview window by clicking on the Live
Preview icon .
Note: All Live Preview sessions sharing the same URL, including one
Primary Standalone Live Preview window and two associated remote
sessions, are identified as one single "<webcam>" user in the
Connected Users dialog. You can disconnect a "<webcam>" user
from this dialog to terminate a specific Primary Standalone Live
Preview window and all of its remote sessions. See
Viewing
Connected Users (on page 266).

minute for the snapshot to appear.
