    Hello,

    1. Is the HTTP playback streaming supposed to show the current running time and streaming info of the Live/Playback archive stream by default? If yes, what is the parameter flag to enable this timestamp option?

    Could you please elaborate on what do you mean by "current running time"? "Streaming info", what info specifically do you mean?
     
    Regarding 2.
    The answer given is the correct one.
     
    Regarding 3.
    In addition to already written, almost all the configuration activities the Nx WIntess application is capable of, can be performed via the Server API, just because the Nx Witness application uses the same API.
    How to activate recording on a camera via API was explained in this post

    4. How is the HTTP stream flag below added?

    What flag exactly are you talking about?

    I'll try to rephrase it.
    There is no Rewind/Fast Forward neither - 8X, 16X, 32X capabilities in the Server API.
    As it was mentioned above, the Nx Wintess application uses the same and only Server API described in the API documentation in the Server web interface.
    The Rewind/Fast Forward 8X, 16X, 32X functionality is implemented in the application, not in the Server API.
    Your application requests a video stream from the Server via media API, the Server will feed the stream in the "best effort" mode, that means as fast as it can, which could be 8X, 16X, 32X or 64X or more of the live video stream, depends on the HWS and network performance. It up to the application to cache the stream data and display the stream according to the Rewind/Fast Forward buttons pressed in a player.
