Video Wall

v2.20.1

The Video Wall lets you save named multi-camera layouts - called walls - and instantly switch between them. Each wall has a fixed number of camera slots defined by its layout. One wall is active at a time; multiple walls can coexist.

Path: Video → Video Wall

Selecting a wall

The filter drawer contains a single-select wall picker. Your last-used wall is automatically restored when you return to this tab. Use the picker to switch between walls.

If no walls exist, the view shows an empty state with a prompt to create the first wall.

Wall layouts

Each wall is created with one of eight fixed layouts. The layout determines how many camera slots the grid contains:

Layout	Slots
1	1 (single full-size camera)
4	4 (2×2)
6	6
9	9 (3×3)
10	10
13	13
16	16 (4×4)
25	25 (5×5)

The layout cannot be changed after a wall is saved unless you edit the wall. Reducing the layout to fewer slots than the current camera count clears all cameras - you must re-add them.

Slot grid

The grid renders one slot per layout position. Each slot is either filled or empty:

Filled slot: Renders a live streaming player identical to Camera List cards. Mouse over the card to reveal the in-slot action menu (see below)
Empty slot: Shows the slot number and a green Add camera button. The button is only visible to the wall’s owner

Camera card: in-slot actions

Mouse over any filled camera slot to reveal its action menu. All actions from the Camera List are available (see Camera List - In-card actions), plus one additional action specific to the Video Wall:

Action	What it does	When available
Remove from wall	Removes this camera card from the slot, leaving it empty	Owner only. Blocked if this is the last remaining card in the wall

Last card protection: Removing the last camera card from a wall is blocked with a warning. A wall must always have at least one camera card. To remove all cameras, delete the wall instead.

Drag-and-drop reordering

Drag any filled camera card and drop it onto another slot. The dragged card and the target slot’s card swap positions. The reorder is saved immediately - no confirmation dialog is shown.

The toolbar also includes an Add (+) button that opens the Create Video Wall dialog.

Icon	Action	Description	When available
-	Diagnostic	Toggles the streaming diagnostic overlay on every slot (per-user, persisted)	Disabled when no walls exist
-	Aspect ratio	Keeps each slot’s natural camera aspect ratio. Session-only - resets on navigation	-
-	Motion grid	Overlays the motion-detection grid and line-crossing detector on every filled slot	Disabled when no wall is selected
-	Open in window	Opens the current wall in a separate browser window	Disabled when no wall is selected
	Edit wall	Opens the Edit Wall dialog to change the name, layout, cameras, or sharing	Disabled when the wall is shared to the current user (view-only)
	Delete wall	Opens a confirmation dialog and permanently deletes the current wall	Disabled when the wall is shared to the current user

Each wall has an owner (the user who created it). Walls can be shared with other users:

Role	Can do
Owner	View, edit, delete, reorder cards, add/remove cameras, share the wall
Shared recipient	View only - Edit and Delete toolbar buttons are disabled; empty-slot ”+” buttons are hidden

A shared wall is identified by Private = false and the current user appearing in the SharedWith list. Shared walls appear in the wall picker alongside the owner’s walls.
