You can add recorded events to the export list or export them directly in the Recordings
Browser.

the desired location. Click on Save. The recorded event is exported.
2.
Select Add to export list to add a sequence to the export list. The export list opens, and
the recorded event is added to the list. Proceed as described above to export the list.
Exporting Using The Menu Bar
You can also open the export list in the menu bar directly by going to File| Export recordings.
Proceed as described above to export the list.
Note
When opening the export list via the menu bar, the list only contains one entry for the
entire recording period. This gives you the option to quickly export a camera's entire
recording. The individual time ranges selected for export in the OnScreen Control are
not used here.
Setting Export Options
When exporting audio/video data, there are dierent export format settings
available, depending on the export format (MxPEG and AVI/MPEG4) (no
settings are possible for file server structure). The predefined options ensure
maximum compatibility for exported data on dierent operating systems
(Windows, Mac OS X).
• Encoder: Most of these settings are only changed whenever there are
special reasons to do so (for example, if a fixed resolution or specific
frame rate has to be used).
Selecting a codec, however, has a significant influence on determining which
operating systems can play back the exported data:
– Motion-JPEG: This codec saves full JPEG images and can usually be used on all
operating systems. Files created with this codec oer the highest quality because the
original files from the camera are used as full JPEG images; this means, however,
that they also have the highest storage space requirements (approx. factor of 4–6
versus FFMPEG MPEG-4).
–
FFMPEG MPEG-4 (standard): This default codec is used by VLC and is also available
for Windows and Mac OS X operating systems if other playback software is used.
This codec oers the optimal combination of quality and minimal storage space.
