Investigation page - some enhancements

[titro]

Man.. the new investigation page is absolutely insane.

I was thinking about a enhancement of the timeline with some better detailed view of the detections but the new investigation page.. crazy :-)

Here are some suggestions for some enhancements:

Date Picker:
There should be an apply " ok button. You have to confirm the selcted date by clicking out of the date picker

Apply Filters:
The button should be colored to focus that this is the submit button for getting the filtered videos

Player control bar.

The selected video has no player control bar. You have the Play button, below the event result and below that the video, but without controls.

event historgram:
the event historgram does not match to the loaded videos. the videos are showing the exact detection but the event historgram is showing videos without any detection

I had run this through a round in the newer release -- if you can review at your leisure which items are still outstanding would help me.

[titro]

sure!

OK:

apply filters:
confirm buttons are now all in the same color so you can see whats the primary button for confirming the form.

Event Histogramm:
OK: Bit confusing that the event histogramm is from left to right (sure, it's a histogram :-D) and the videos below are listed from right to left.
understandable having the newest one in the list on the left but first a bit confusing and i have no better idea currently.

Not OK:

date picker:
Still no confirm / OK or abort button on deskto view (Chrome).
On mobile (Android/Chrome) there is a confirm and abort buton but i guess that is the native date picker view. On Desktop it's a separate one.

Player control bar.

The selected video has no player control bar. You have the Play button, below the event result and below that the video, but without controls.

New one:
The video is cropped. Guess it is dependent from the resolution? I'm using a reolink doorbell for the tests with a 4:3 resolution and i can only see all of the video if i switch to fullscreen.

Current main/0.41.2 has the three remaining behaviors wired as follows: the start/end values are staged until the explicit primary Apply window button is pressed; the recording video element has native controls whenever fisheye ePTZ is not active; and the player uses object-fit: contain, so a 4:3 recording should letterbox rather than crop. Chrome owns the desktop datetime-local popup itself, so LightNVR cannot add buttons inside that native popup; Apply window is the application-level confirmation.

Could you retest the control bar and 4:3 framing specifically on 0.41.2 and confirm whether ePTZ is enabled for that stream? If either still fails there, a screenshot plus the stream ePTZ setting will distinguish the native-video path from the canvas path.

tested on 0.41.3
fullscreen is fine but on the investigation page the video is still cropped, no letterbox and no player buttons (which are visible for a short moment until video is loaded)

ePTZ is not active for the stream.

tested on Chrome, Fx, Edge on Windows Desktop.

Video no fullscreen::

and fullscreen

Worth having a fresh check of this.

[titro]

yes, ratio is now good and not cropped.

But i have now two control bars.
One in the video (i guess from the browser) and one below that:

If i use one of the two "Play" Button, it is synced with the control bar in the video (so is switches to "Pause").

If i use the control bar in the video, i can play the video but the Play Buttons are not switching to "Pause"

Worth a re-check.
