Understanding the folder list
The Folder list displays the hierarchy of folders on the IP VCR. Folders are used to group stored recordings together in a
convenient manner. Stored recordings are one of:
recordings that have been made using the IP VCR
recordings that have been uploaded to the IP VCR (see Transferring recordings)
recordings that are stored externally in an Network Files System (NFS) (see Storing recordings externally)
To view the Folder list, go to Recordings > Folders.
The Expand all button displays the entire folder tree. This also displays recordings stored physically on the IP VCR inside
the folders. Externally stored recordings are not displayed in the Folder list; they are displayed in the Recording list.
The Collapse all button causes the display to show the folder hierarchy without recordings listed. Click the 'plus' sign (+)
on individual folders, to show the recordings stored in that folder.
Each folder can contain multiple recordings and sub folders. Next to each folder name in the Folder list, the number of
recordings in that folder is displayed. For folders that are linked to external storage locations, the number of externally
stored recordings is also listed and in this case the number of recordings in the folder includes the number of externally
stored recordings (that is, the number of recordings in the folder is the total number of recordings in the folder).
The folder structure is browsable in the Recordings list (go to Recordings > Recording list), and by an H.323 endpoint
user calling the IP VCR using an auto attendant. Each folder will appear as a separate auto attendant. If you assign auto
attendant IDs to folders, H.323 users will be able to connect directly to that folder.
If you assign Numeric IDs to recordings, the recordings can then be registered with an H.323 gatekeeper and/or a SIP
registrar enabling users to directly dial a recording. Note that externally stored recordings cannot currently be accessed
via a SIP registrar.
You can create up to 50 folders on the IP VCR.
You can create recordings directly into a particular folder, by assigning a folder with a Recording ID and using a
gatekeeper. For more information about recording IDs, refer to Adding and updating folders.
