Live and historical video from anywhere
Operations and security teams open any camera in seconds — live or rewound — without sitting at the NVR room. Multi-camera synchronized playback helps reconstruct incidents fast.
How does live view and playback work?
Slinai ingests streams from your recorders or cameras, proxies them securely to authorised users, and stores indexed footage for playback. Users scrub timelines, sync multiple angles, and bookmark moments for clips — all from a browser without client software.
What Live view & playback delivers
Sub-second live start
Optimised streaming paths for field managers checking a site from their phone on 4G.
Multi-camera sync
Align timestamps across checkout, entrance, and stockroom angles during incident investigations.
Watermarked exports
Optional watermarking on exported clips for chain-of-custody during legal or insurer handoffs.
Bandwidth adaptive
Adaptive bitrates for 4G field use — sub-streams serve analytics; main streams serve on-demand live view.
Motion bookmarks
AI-tagged and manual bookmarks let investigators skip to flagged moments without scrubbing entire recordings.
Role-gated retention
Per-site retention windows with role-based access — site managers see their site; HQ sees all.
Managers verify the floor without flying to site
Area managers routinely call stores asking 'is the queue bad right now?' or 'did the opening go okay?' Live view answers instantly from any browser. Playback settles disputes about opening time, delivery handoffs, or customer incidents — without anyone rewinding the NVR on-site.
Low-latency streams work on standard 4G for field visits; the same session opens in a desktop browser for HQ control rooms.
Multi-camera sync for investigations
Checkout disputes, loading-bay incidents, and access-control breaches rarely play out on a single camera. Synchronized playback lets LP and security teams scrub entrance, checkout, and stockroom timelines side-by-side — building a coherent picture without exporting to a third-party editor.
Pair with Clip search & export to pull timestamped segments and share secure links with insurers, HR, or law enforcement directly from the playback interface.

Common questions
Is live view low latency?
Typical live start is under two seconds on broadband; latency depends on your uplink and recorder settings. Sub-streams use less bandwidth while maintaining analytics quality.
Can I watch multiple cameras at once?
Yes — grid layouts for control-room style monitoring up to 16 cameras, or focused single-camera view for detail review.
How much bandwidth does live view use?
Sub-stream adaptive bitrate keeps mobile use manageable — typically 0.5–2 Mbps per camera on 4G depending on resolution and motion.
How long is footage retained?
Configurable per site tier in Cloud VMS settings — from 7 to 90 days standard; extended cloud archive available on request.
