For a description and a complete list of UI Objects, see A real-time view of a camera or grid of cameras. Unlike the camera object, camerapanel has two operating modes: live and playback. It includes a panel that allows access to various functions:
- motions' list: a list of all the motions
- live mode:
- play last motion
- PTZ functions: zoom (in, out), pan (up, right, down, left), enlarge, show all, stop
- cycle mode: cycles through all the cameras (or the cameras specified in the camera list parameter). Stops on a camera if there's a motion being recorded
- playback mode
- playback controls: play/pause, previous/next motion
- motion progress bar
- send screenshot to an email address: sends the current frame to the specified address
- download video: generates and download an MPEG-4 video that includes all the frames from the currently shown one to the last one of the current motion
- exit playback mode
While in playback mode, hovering the mouse cursor on the lower part of the image (or touching and dragging if using a touch-enabled device) will show a preview of the corresponding frame. Clicking the upper part of the image will toggle back to live mode.
