Creating a video multistream Px view

The Video Multistream pane displays multiple video images when using a single video binding. This view is available only using cameras that are controlled by a single DVR device.

Create a new Px page or open a Px page to edit in the Px Editor view.
From the Nav tree, expand nodes: Station > Drivers > VideoDriverNetwork to display the DVR device.
Drag the DVR device onto the Px page.
The Make Widget Wizard opens.
In the Make Widget Wizard, select the Video Multistream pane from the palette property and click OK.
The Video Multistream widget opens on the Px page and in the Px Editor Widget Tree pane.
In the Px Editor Widget Tree, double-click on the VideoMultistream pane.
The Properties window opens.
In the Properties window, configure the properties, and click OK.
It is sometimes easier to set the Layout property in the Properties window than to drag the widget borders. Using absolute positioning (abs), notice that using a value of 0 for both X and Y values places the top left corner of the widget in the top left corner of the parent object.
From the Nav tree, expand the DVR device and any container folders (such as a Cameras folder) to display cameras under the DVR device.
To add each camera, do the following:
1. Drag a camera onto the Canvas pane under the VideoMultistream pane.
  The Make Widget Wizard opens.
2. In the Make Widget Wizard, with the From Palette option selected, select the Live Video Player widget from the videoDriver Px folder and click OK.
  The Live Video Player displays on the Px view.
3. Select the Live Video Player widget, re-size, and move it to the desired location.
Save the Px page and select the Wb Px view to display the multistream Px view.
