Is there a way to input a timestamp to the web client to start playback at a certain time?

I was directed to post in the dev forum by the support forum, in short I’d like to be able to input a timestamp in the request URL to the web client and have it start playback at a certain point.

So far I’ve only been able to get to recording mode on a particular camera but not to a timestamp. With the following URI:

https://:8082/index.html#view=viewGUID&cam=camGUID&pb=timeEpoch

viewGUID and camGUID seem to pull up the correct information but it seems like the web client just ignores the epoch and either goes to the current time or 6 months in the past. Is there any way to input a time value and have the web client recognize it properly?

Hi Michael,

The time (pb) parameter is respected by the Web Client logic.

The parameter should be in UNIX timestamp format.

One thing you should keep in mind - if there are no recordings for the current time the mobile server will return video for the closest time with recordings.

Best Regards,
