Instructions for taking screenshots of live camera feeds and historical video

Updated over a week ago

The screenshot tool can be very useful when wanting to take a quick still image capture of something happening on a live stream or historical video.

Selecting the screenshot button will take a capture of the video feed at that exact time. The picture will automatically download to your device as a .jpg file for you to open and share.

The screenshot will include the camera name, date, and time at the top left-hand corner.
