Initialize Playback
zFrom the Player page (see page 35), play a media stream by clicking Play.
Pause Playback
zTo pause a stream, click Pause.
zTo resume playback, click Play. Playback will continue from the point where it was
paused.
Stop Playback
zTo stop a stream, click Stop.
NOTE: Clicking Play following a Stop operation will initiate playback from the start
of the media stream.
When playback is paused or stopped, the VN‑Matrix decoder will behave as if the source
data stream has stopped. If the NoData Splash feature is enabled on the decoder, the
display will show the "No Source Datastream" message until playback resumes.
Disabling the NoData Splash feature will instead display the last frame of video received.
This has the effect of simulating a true pause of the playback.
NOTE: For more information on the NoData Splash feature, see the
VN‑Matrix 200 / 225 / 300 / 325 user guides.
Start and Finish Times
When a stream is selected for playback, the start and finish times are populated with the
original start and finish times of the recording.
If required, it is possible to play back only a part of the original stream by entering different
start and finish times.
zChange the start and finish times as required and click Update.
zTo recall the original times, reopen the file.
Auto Repeat
zBy default, a stream will play through once from start to finish.
zBy selecting the auto repeat check box, the stream will loop continuously.
