Controller Configuration, Monitoring, and Control > Thumbnail and Video Streaming

Thumbnail and Video Streaming

The SEL-MCP3 frame supports both MPEG streaming and thumbnails. The frame can output only thumbnails or a single high-end stream at any one time. All users logged into the frame will see the same type of streaming. If one user changes the streaming type, the video streaming type is changed for all users. Before switching the streaming view type, be sure that you are not interfering with someone else’s critical path.

The output type that is displayed is determined by the controller module. If no other users are connected to the SEL-MCP3 frame, the display will show the same type of output that it displayed the last time it was used. If other users are connected to the frame, any user can change the display, so you will see the type of video (either a series of thumbnails or a single HD stream) that was most recently selected by any users on the system.

See the following topics:

• Viewing High-End Video
• Viewing Thumbnail Video

Not all modules support streaming. See the documentation for your specific module if you are not sure whether it supports streaming.
