Miscellaneous Viewer Controls

At the upper right of the Viewer are controls to select Split screen or Picture in Picture view when multiple players are active. At the extreme right is an info button that displays MIS hot keys. Lastly, if only a single player is active the icon is displayed; this enables you to view closed caption text.

Player Views

Use the two icons at the upper right corner of the viewer page to switch between <Split-Screen> and <Picture-in-Picture> view. To return to channel view press <ESC>.

Keyboard Hotkeys

In addition to the on screen icons, many viewer functions can be controlled via keyboard hotkeys. This is often more convenient than using the mouse for common operations. Pressing the information button at the top right of the player window opens the hotkey info page.
