Is there anyway to make the event playback work in a continuos way? I.e. without the need of the "next" button ? any ideas of how to implement this?

thanks and excuses about my poor english

I think this is a terrific idea. A really cool way to implement this would be to use the existing event list screen and add a "view checked" button next to the delete button. That way you could check the events you want to see and click one button.

With any kind of continuous playback, it would also be nice to embed the event id into the video frames so one could easily correlate what is being viewed with the actual event.

In 1.19.5 I believe you can view all of the events but only from your current event to earlier events. This is like walking things happen backwards. It would be nice to be able to view the current events and all later events so that you are watching a natural progression of events.

Either way, this app is great.

The order of viewing events in this way is not fixed, it is just whatever the order is of the list of events you are viewing. So if your event list is sorted biggest first then the event sequence will be ordered in that way. The default event list is order by descending time but click on the date/time heading and it will reverse as will your events sequence.
