All previous continuous recordings will remain in the recording list until they are removed manually or through automatic removal of old recordings.

To start a continuous recording, follow these steps:

1.Go to Recordings > Continuous.

2.Select Enabled.

3.Select the type of storage device from the Storage list.

4.Select a Stream profile to use for continuous recordings. To include audio in the recording, use AAC audio encoding and make sure that audio is enabled in the selected stream profile.
