IMPORTANT!
Due to the limitations of file system and video recording format, a video recording interrupted by sabotage or power outage will produce inaccessible video fragments. And the loss of video makes it difficult to identify who sabotaged the camera and the assets it aims to protect.
This revision of firmware (0101h and above) now supports “Recoverable Recording,” a feature that enables the usability of video footages taken immediately before (less than 1 second) an interruption. By inserting meta tags and pointers to videos, videos recorded to the onboard SD card or networked storage can be viewable even when it is abnormally discontinued. Some video frames will still be lost, yet it is now possible to retrieve important footages taken before a camera is destroyed or its power disconnected.
You can select the Recovered checkbox to search for the videos particularly affected by an interruption.
