Create a playback restriction

Recorded video or audio footage can be restricted to prevent the content from being viewed by unauthorized operators.

You must define a start and end time for the restriction you want to create.

1. In Playback mode, select the cameras you want to restrict access to and in the main timeline, select the start and end time for the interval you want to create a restriction for. You can select Set start and end time on timeline to select start and end times from the timeline tracks or Set start and end time in calendar.
2. In the toolbar, click Video restrictions > Create to open the Create playback restriction dialog.
3. In the Create playback restriction dialog:
   1. In the Headline field, enter a headline for the restriction. A short, unique headline will enable other operators to locate the restriction faster.
   2. In the Description field, enter a description of the restriction.
   3. In the Interval start and Interval end fields, make sure the defined restriction interval is appropriate for the sequence you want to restrict. You can also enter new interval start and end times. If the start and end times are identical, the interval start will automatically be adjusted back by 5 minutes.
   4. In the right half of the Create playback restriction dialog, click Add camera and select additional cameras to add to the restriction.
4. Click the Create restriction button to open the Create playback restriction dialog.
5. In the Create playback restriction dialog, click Create restriction to confirm your choice.
6. When the restriction has been created, click Close to close the dialog.
   You can click Details to get a more detailed overview of the creation process.

Once the restriction is created, you can add additional cameras by opening the restriction in the Video restrictions list and editing the restriction settings.
