StarDot DVR allows you to simultaneously play recorded video from one or more cameras (up to 16). While you're viewing recorded video, StarDot DVR continues to record the cameras in the background.

To play recorded video, first click the camera image you want to view. To select multiple cameras, hold down CTRL and click up to sixteen cameras. Once the views are selected, click the green playback button () to enter playback mode.

By default, StarDot DVR loads the last two days of video. Use the timeline zoom out () and zoom in () buttons expand and contract the playback range (or use the horizontal scroll bar to go back and forth in time without expanding the playback range). You can also type in the date and time boxes or click on the date drop down to select a starting date.
