Watch Dashcam Video with a Trip
For vehicles fitted with an MDVR multi-camera dashcam, MapView plays video back in sync with the trip. As the trip animates on the map, the footage follows along so you can see exactly what happened.

How to watch dashcam video with a trip
- Open the vehicle’s trip and press play to start the trip playback.
- For an MDVR-equipped vehicle, the trip video panel opens automatically alongside the map.
- Use the multi-camera strip to choose a camera: Front, Rear, Cabin, or Side.
- Control playback with play/pause, fast-forward, and mute — the video stays synced to the trip.

Frequently asked questions
What hardware do I need to see trip video?
Trip video requires an MDVR (multi-camera dashcam) add-on installed on the vehicle. Without an MDVR, the trip plays on the map but no video panel appears. Contact AVLView to add an MDVR to any vehicle.
Can I watch the camera live, not just recorded?
Yes. When an MDVR-equipped vehicle is online, you can open its live camera stream from the live track card in the Live tab.
