Markers allow for easy and quick marking and locating of specific moments or segments of your content directly in your stream's DVR timeline.
Overview
Moments
Moments refer to a singular moment in time within the UDVR. These markers are highly adaptable and can be utilized for a wide range of purposes.
Segments
Segments enable users to designate a portion of the UDVR, complete with an in point and an out point. These markers are primarily intended for saving specific clips that will be trimmed at a later time. There are several reasons for using this marker type, such as when a user needs to switch to a new clip or when collaborating with another user who needs to review the segment.
