Change the duration of recording

Hi there, i'm a french officer in a Swat team i find your great software and tested it.
But, for my job, where we use very often some camcorder with motion detection we can modify the duration of recording after a motion detection.
Usually we put 5 seconds in pre-alarm and 30s in alarm.

It will be great to put this feature because i would like to use your software at work.
For example : if we put an area detection in a door and a people go out. If we want to know which car he drives we have to put a duration more than 10s otherwise we just see it through the door but not where in jump in the car.

With DVD you can view video that is "between" detected motion video if you get to it before it gets deleted (usually 2 days).

Select a single camera in the camera list and then select the video that starts the motion detection sequence. After that video ends, just click the "Play" button and the video after that video and before next one, will continue where the one left off. It may be a long video, but it can be exported at that time (right-click on the player window) and trimmed using a video editor to remove excess if necessary.

You can also go backwards in the sequence of videos by dragging the thumbbutton to the left and then clicking the -0.02 second button to select the previous video data. Drag the thumbbutton in that video to go back farther if needed.
