Archiving Video

To archive a still image or video clip to a USB stick, the user must first archive a still image or video clip to the hard drive.

Archiving Images or Video onto the Hard Drive

Still images can be captured and archived onto the hard drive in live mode or while playing back recorded video. In live mode, press ARCH to capture and store the still image. When you press ARCH, Figure 4-14will display.

Figure 4-14 Archive Mode Screen

The still image will be archived onto the hard drive and can be transferred to a USB stick afterwards.

In playback mode, press ARCH to launch the archiving function. The DVR will ask whether to store a Still Image or Video clip (see Figure 4-14). If the user selects STILL, it will store the captured still image on the HDD. If the user selects VIDEO, the DVR will keep a record of the archiving operation without actually writing to the hard drive. When a USB stick is plugged in and archiving to the USB is requested, the DVR will convert the corresponding portion of video into an AVI file and store it onto the USB stick. Make sure to transfer the data to the USB stick before the actual video content is erased from the hard drive, otherwise the clip will be lost, even if archived to the hard drive.

Transferring Still Images or Video onto USB

To begin transferring stored images or video to a USB stick, connect the DVR to a USB stick through the USB port on the front panel (see Figure 3-1). Press Search then select Archive, this will bring up the ARCHIVE screen (see Figure 4-15), which will allow you to select a date to search for stored images or video.
