Enabling and filtering navigation views

To select and filter using metadata, you must first add metadata in the Configure System window or in the camera's Settings window.

To filter using metadata, in the Live or Search window, complete the following steps:

In the Navigation panel, select the down arrow next to the Filter by Name field.
From the Search Options list, select one or more filter check boxes (Name, Description, Address, City, State, Postal Code, Country, Location, Department, Phone Number, Contact, Email, Asset Tag, Additional Data or Group By Device).

Note: The new filters you select are assigned to the Filter by field in the Navigation panel. The default value is Name. To restore this value, click Restore Defaults.
In the Navigation panel, enter the value to filter by in the Filter by field.

For example, if you select to filter by Additional Data, then you can enter a value such as fan to display only cameras that contain this value in the Navigation panel.

Example 2: If you select Group by Device, audio streams will automatically pair with the connected camera in the tree.
