# Live Video Feed

## Overview

Your visibility choices directly impact what appears in the  live video feed panel. When you select and show a drone, its associated video feeds automatically populate in the bottom panel. When you hide a drone, those video streams are removed, freeing up screen real estate for the feeds that matter most to your current operation. This integration ensures your video monitoring aligns perfectly with your data monitoring, creating a cohesive workspace that adapts to your operational priorities.

## Video View Switching

Fleet View 2.0 provides dual video access for each visible drone, enabling users to switch between the default **Payload view** and the **FPV (First-Person View)** stream. This allows independent and flexible monitoring of each drone’s perspective.

#### Default and FPV View Control

* **Default Mode:** All drones feeds are displayed in **Payload view** by default

## Pinned Drone View and Spotlight Mode

Pinning a drone activates **Spotlight Mode**, enhancing its visibility in the interface and enabling focused tracking. Only one drone can be pinned at a time.

### Spotlight Mode Functionality

* **Pinning a Drone:** Select the **“Pin”** icon on a drone to enter spotlight mode.
* **Enhanced Video Display:** The **FPV stream** is shown prominently on the right, with the **Payload stream** displayed next to it.
* **Automatic Map Tracking:** While spotlighted, the map automatically follows the pinned drone’s movement.

### Returning to Standard View

* **Exit Spotlight:** Click **“Exit Spotlight Mode”** to unpin the drone.

* **Revert Layout:** The drone returns to the general fleet view, and the map resets to its default state.

## Primary Stream Selection with "Feature This Drone"

When a drone is pinned, Fleet View 2.0 displays three available video streams: **Payload**, **FPV**, and **Dock**. Operators can choose which stream appears as the primary (large) view.

## Managing Primary Streams

* **Access Controls:** Click **“Feature this drone”** in the top-right corner of the pinned drone’s video panel.

* **Select Primary Stream:** Choose between **Payload**, **Dock**, or **FPV** as the primary feed.
  * The selected stream appears in the large video window.
  * The remaining streams are shown in smaller adjacent views.

## Refreshing Video Streams

* **Stream Troubleshooting:** Click **“Refresh Video Feed”** to reset and re-establish the selected stream connection. This is useful when resolving video lag, buffering, or connection issues.
