Changing the Format of Recorded Video (PC Only)

You can change the format of recorded video saved using Remote Surveillance. This allows you to directly backup footage from your DVR as an .avi file. This does not affect the format of video files that are backed up locally on the DVR (i.e. using a USB flash drive).

NOTE: This feature is not available via Mac.
