Attention!
If you set the Log collection checkbox in the app settings (see Configuring debugging in the AxxonNet mobile client on Android OS), and the camera has MJPEG playback format, archive video won't be displayed when you connect to the Axxon PSIM Server. To view archive video, do the following:

You can navigate through the archive using the timeline at the bottom of the screen. Do it by swiping left and right on the timeline.
You can change the timeline scale by using the 
buttons or by pinching/stretching the timeline with two fingers. You can also zoom in on the timeline by double-tapping the timeline.
You can speed up, slow down, and also change the direction (forward/reverse) of playback using the 
buttons. The current playback speed is displayed between the buttons. During a reverse playback, a - sign is displayed before the speed rate.
