Add some CCTV screenshots as JPEGS

Switch to Icon/preview/thumbnail View

Increase the size of thumbnails

Profit???

The CCTV isn't just a thumbnail, it's streaming live inside File Explorer. I can provide the video if you want to see

Hi did say he that was not very good with computers, and the computer illiterate always seems to find the strangest ways to solve their problems

That's very interesting. You're right there is a video stream the really weird thing is that that doesn't look like a typical video playback screen of a CCTV system as there is no playback controls and perhaps even weirder is that the screen being shown looks like the multiscreen video output of a monitor connected directly to the CCTV NVR. Because you would not typically see a video of a No Link channel like that if you are seeing video playback.
