Remember: if you want to save the position of the camera image of a
viewport (what the camera is looking at) make sure to make the
changes in "Camera Settings". Any PTZ changes made in preview images,
history browser, or live view are only temporary. As soon as you
close the window the camera image will be back to its original
position.
Virtual PTZ: Positioning the Viewpoint:
Note: Any user with permission to view video can
use Virtual PTZ to virtually pan, tilt and zoom
within the full 360-degree image because it does
not change the recorded video.
The Viewports can be moved in both the Live View and the Historical Browser & Previews.
1. Go to Live View.
2. Hold and drag to move the image.
3. Go to History Browser & Previews.
4. Single click on the spot you want the camera to center on.
Remember: No matter the position of the Viewpoint in the Historical
Footage, the entire area captured by the fisheye camera will be part
of the footage. Therefore, the angle can be changed in historical
footage.
