Managing views in XProtect Smart Client – Player

A project in XProtect Smart Client – Player is a collection of files that are created when video is exported in database format from XProtect Smart Client. Your user settings, including information about your views, are stored as part of a project.

The Project pane appears when you select Setup. In setup mode, you can:

Change the name of the project.
Create or open a project
Assign passwords to projects - only people with permission can view a video. You can also assign passwords to devices when you export them. To avoid having to keep track of several database passwords, you can assign a single password to the overall project. If you do not assign an overall password and you have databases with passwords added to your project, you will be asked to enter a password for each database when you open the project. If you assign a password to a project, you cannot delete it. However, you can change the password or create a new identical project on the Project pane.

The Overview pane in XProtect Smart Client – Player displays the cameras, microphones, speakers, webpages, images, and plug-ins assigned to the project. When you have selected a device, you can delete it and rename it. You can link speakers and microphones to cameras. Then associated audio is automatically selected when you view recorded video for a particular camera.

To open a database from an archive or previously exported material, select . The Open database wizard appears.

Note

When you delete a device, you do not delete the actual database files associated with the device, you just remove them from the project.
