  1. Open the vehicle map.
  2. Click on any point along the path, not just events or waypoints.
  3. The quick info opens with info and options to select the camera you wish to see.
  4. Press "Play".
  5. The system will attempt to fetch a 10-second clip centered on the selected timestamp.

Using real-time messaging (SignalRhub):

  • You’ll see a message if the video is being fetched, is unavailable, or there’s an error.
  • Upon success, the video starts playing.

Known Limitations

  • Video availability depends on connectivity and recording settings.
  • You may need to adjust the time slightly to access recorded segments.

Video Availability & Feedback Messages

  • Video retrieval is on demand. After clicking play, Frotcom will fetch the video. If successful, playback starts automatically. Otherwise, an error message appears.

  • The system provides feedback messages when issues occur:
