From the Vehicle route playback task, you can export the route playback layout to a standalone video player that can be viewed outside of Security Desk. The standalone player is supplied with the Security Center Fleet Monitoring package.

What you should know

You can use the offline route playback feature to do the following:
  • Play back synchronized video and vehicle routes
  • Modify video tile patterns and sizes
  • Organize tiles to show particular data
  • Verify the digital signature on a video file within the player

Procedure

  1. From the Security Desk homepage, open the Vehicle route playback task.
  2. Display the entities whose route playback you want to export.
    The task exports the map's zoom level and the tile layout as they are currently displayed.
  3. In the Time frame section, set the time frame to export:
    • If this is the first time you are exporting a vehicle route playback, set a time frame of about one minute. This accelerates the process of generating the standalone video player.
    • If you have already generated the standalone video player, set the time frame you want to export.
    NOTE:
    • If one of the tiles is not displaying any information, try adjusting the time frame. A blank tile means the associated device was not capturing information during the specified time frame.
    • If none of the cameras involved in the route playback export have any video from the specified time frame, only GPS and metadata info associated with the export time frame is displayed.
