A computing system device with processor(s) and memory displays a video monitoring user interface on the display. The video monitoring user interface includes a first region for displaying a live video feed and/or a recorded video feed from the video camera and a second region for displaying a event timeline. The event timeline includes a plurality of equally spaced time indicators each indicating a specific time and a current video feed indicator indicating the temporal position of the video feed displayed in the first region. The temporal position includes a past time corresponding to the previously recorded video feed from the video camera and a current time corresponding to the live video feed from the video camera. The current video feed indicator is movable relative to the equally spaced time indicators to facilitate a change in the temporal position of the video feed displayed in the first region.
