10 Recording
The Lecture Recorder x2 captures video and audio data which can be encapsulated
in a file or files and recorded.
The Web admin interface provides the administrator and operator users with the
ability to start, stop and configure the recording. Additionally, recorded video files
might need to be downloaded or copied to another device for archiving purposes;
also they might need to be deleted in order to manage disk space on the Lecture
Recorder x2. For organizing, recorded video files may need to be renamed. All of
these management tasks are available via the Lecture Recorder x2’s Web admin
Interface.
