Bookmarking with Labels & Timeline Markers


Tag and recall key video moments with bookmarks

In fast-paced missions or long surveillance operations, digging through hours of footage wastes time and risks missing critical points. FireLight™ addresses this with powerful Bookmarking and Timeline Markers, enabling operators to tag important moments in real-time or during playback with rich, customizable labels. Each bookmark automatically includes a buffer of video before and after the marked event, while timeline markers help analysts or investigators quickly locate, review, and extract key footage without the need for endless scrubbing. Whether you’re building a case, coordinating a live mission, or conducting an after-action review, FireLight™ ensures that nothing important gets lost in the stream.
