    Playback not available straight away via IDMSS ?

    For some reason I’m unable to immediately watch a replay of the video that has been recorded to the SD card in my camera . If I wait 30 mins it’s available..I’m guessing it’s got something to do with the Record Control option which I have set to 30mins but on my other Dahau camera I have the...
