The software has the option of video scaling in surveillance windows.

To zoom in or zoom out the video in an active surveillance window, use the mouse wheel (see the figures below).

Scaling the video in the surveillance window (initial state):

Scaling the video image in the surveillance window (post-scaling state):

In addition, there are other ways of video scaling (see Video image processing).

You can move the zoomed-in video in the surveillance window by dragging it with the left mouse button. You can also use the Up and Down keyboard keys to move the video up and down, respectively.

If you specify the restorezoom registry key, then after the specified time, the scaling is reset if idle (see Registry keys reference guide). If the key is absent, then the specified scaling ratio and the scaling area of the video are saved even after you restart Axxon PSIM.

Note

You can block the ability to scale and move the scaled area using the blocking registry key (see Registry keys reference guide).

If the additional video surveillance monitor is configured and has the Active camera mode enabled (see Configuring the display mode of camera windows), and if the GreenStream automatic video stream selection is configured (see Configuring automatic selection of video stream for display), then when you scale the video in this video surveillance monitor, the video streams are switched. However, if the maximum resolution video stream is used initially, the video stream will not be switched.

Note

The maximum possible video size is achieved when a single surveillance window with this video is displayed on a single video surveillance monitor. If multiple surveillance windows are displayed, their sizes can be automatically reduced to fit into a single video surveillance monitor.

Note

In the archive mode, the mouse wheel can also scroll through the list of videos if you left-click the video list beforehand. In this case, you need to left-click in the surveillance window to scale the video with the mouse wheel.

Note

If you specified the lens type when configuring the camera, then instead of scaling the video when you scroll the mouse wheel, the fisheye conversion of the video image is performed (see also Enable fisheye).
