Protect a Recorded Video Segment

The Command Center automatically deletes old files as it reaches its disk storage limit. It does this by deleting the oldest recorded video segments to make room for the new video. In some cases, you may have a segment that you want to protect for an extended period of time.

To protect a segment, navigate to the segment so that it is paused in the Playback window. Next, right-click on the video window to reveal the playback context menu and choose Protect Video Segment. You can easily identify a protected video segment

because it will show red rather than green in the navigation window. (See Managing Disk Usage in the chapter on Command Center Options for more details on disk space usage.)

Note: You can protect a video segment by right-clicking on a green video segment in the timeline and selecting Protect Video. Also, when two or more consecutive video segments are protected, the timeline will display them using two different shades of red, as is shown here.

Unprotect Video Segment

Command Center makes it easy for you to unprotect a protected video segment. To accomplish this, navigate to the protected video segment in the Playback window. When the video segment is displaying in the video window, right-click on the image representing the video clip and choose Unprotect Video Segment. The video segment will now display in the navigation window like other unprotected video clips, colored green.

Protect and Upload Video Segments

Store important videos recorded by your cameras on secure WiLife servers on the web. In fact, call it your very own WiLife video vault!

Command Center makes uploading video segments to your WiLife Online account easy. Literally right-click on the video file you want to upload and select “Protect and Upload Video Segments.” That’s it! Your video file is transferred to a safe and secure WiLife server.

Once uploaded video segments are on your WiLife Online account, you can play them from anywhere in the world, at any time; and share them with friends, family, and even local law enforcement, if needed.

The following graphic is an example of the uploading process screen that displays each time you protect and upload a video clip.
