11 Exporting
Video footage can be saved either as a single frame still shot or as a video file. Audio and POS/ATM data can
be saved either embedded within video footage or in a separate document. This process is referred to as
“exporting”.
Note: To export footage there must be at least one export destination configured.
Note: If Export Auditing is enabled on the DVR, required information must be entered before
selecting the destination folder for both images and video exports.
11.1 Still Image Exporting
Single frame shots can be saved in either Bitmap (BMP) or JPEG (JPG) format. BMP images retain all of the
original image detail, but are typically much larger than JPG images as a result. JPG images are compressed
and are typically indistinguishable from the original image when the JPG quality is 70 or greater.
Click to open the Export Menu and Select Still Image.
Bitmap
Saves the still image as a BMP image. Select the export destinations and enter a filename. Click Save when
finished or Cancel to exit without saving.
JPEG
Saves the still image as a JPG image. Select the export destination and enter a filename. Additionally, you
may select a quality setting for the JPG image by adjusting the slider. Closer to the left side means a lower
quality, smaller sized file; further to the right means a higher quality, larger sized file. For the most part,
the default compression setting is the best choice. Click Save when finished or Cancel to exit without
saving.
Select the destination you want to save the image to. You can select multiple
destinations by checking the corresponding boxes, as well as create subdirectories
by using the New Folder button. When Exporting a Bitmap the Quality slider will not
be visible.
Click and Select Print Still Image to Print to the Windows default printer. Note: The image will be sent to
the default Windows printer only. If one has not been configured an error message will inform you of this.
