How to add and configure Slideshow Recorder

'Slideshow Recorder' allows you to record a series of frames during a long period of time and convert these frames into a slow-motion slideshow. 

Before adding the recorder, please check 'Video Recording' pre-requisites and requirements. If the 'Video Recording' feature is enabled, and your camera meets all requirements, follow the steps below to add and configure the recorder:

• Log in to the Ozolio Dashboard at clients.ozolio.com/login/
• Open 'RECORDERS' at the top of the Dashboard.

• Click the Blue ' +ADD RECORDER ' button on the top right-hand side of the page.

• In the opened dialog:
  
  • Enter 'Recorder Name' (for internal purposes only).
  • Select 'Recorder Type' - 'Slideshow'.
  • Press "ADD RECORDER".

• In the recorder settings dialog: 
  • Select 'Recorder Mode'.
    • 'Manual' mode allows you to start/stop the recording manually.
    • 'Schedule' mode allows you to schedule recording session(s).
  • In 'Target Camera', select the camera you wish to record.
  • In 'Capture Period', select a period in minutes to capture a new frame during the recording. 
  • In 'Playback Period', select a period in seconds to show a new frame during playback.

• If you have selected 'Schedule' mode:
  
  • Select 'Start Time' and 'Stop Time' of the recording session.
  • If you wish to restrict the date range, select 'Start Date' and 'Stop Date'.
• If you wish to prevent your viewers from controlling the camera during the recording session:
  
  • Expand 'Advanced Options'.
  • Check 'Lock Control'.

• Ensure that the recorder configuration is correct and check the box 'RECORDER ENABLED' at the top of the dialogue.
