Accessing Images/Videos via a Computer
One of the most convenient aspects of recording to an SD card is that, if you have an SD card reader for your computer, you can simply pop the SD card into it and open the RedAlert’s images/videos directly.
To playback, copy and delete images using a computer:
1.Place the SD card into your computer via an internal or external card reader.
2.Open the SD card in your computer’s file browser. You’ll see a folder dedicated to each day that the RedAlert was operating.
3.All recorded images and videos are stored as separate files numbered in chronological order of when they were captured.
4.You can cut and paste the RedAlert’s images/videos in the same manner as any other file.
5.To delete files, drag them to the Trash/Recycle Bin (depending on your operating system) or highlight them and press your computers delete key. A popup box will ask you to confirm.
6.Most current systems will have no problem opening the file types that the RedAlert creates. If you encounter problems, update your video player or image viewing software.
If you’re having trouble playing back the videos created by the RedAlert, consider downloading VLC Media Player. There are versions of VLC available for Windows, Mac OS and just about every other operating system you can imagine.
It is available free online, at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
