video and for recording video may very well be different in order to
get the best result.

Manual recording

When you configure video and recording (see "About video and recording configuration" on page 64),
you can specify certain properties for many cameras in one go. In the case of manual recording, it is
because the properties are shared by all cameras.

When manual recording is enabled, XProtect Smart Client users with the necessary rights can
manually start recording if they see something of interest while viewing live video from a camera which
is not already recording.

If enabled, manual recording can take place even if recording for individual cameras (see "Recording"
on page 91) is set to Never or Conditionally.

When started from XProtect Smart Client, such user-driven recording always takes place for a fixed
time, for example for five minutes.
