IMPORTANT. If a long period of time is selected for export, it may cause delays. In this case, the
following warning message will appear:
File and folder operations are performed in the same manner as in Windows Explorer.
The following formats are supported:
NOV – a proprietary format. Can be opened by DW Spectrum Client only. Can be changed if needed
(see "Changing Multi-Video after Export").
NOV (Read-Only) – a proprietary format. Should be opened by DW Spectrum. Cannot be changed.
EXE – an executable bundle (platform dependent – x86 or x64). Can be opened without DW Spectrum
installed on the computer. Can be changed in the future if needed (see "Changing Multi-Video after
Export").
EXE (Read-Only) – a proprietary format (platform dependent – x86 or x64). An executable bundle. Can
be opened without DW Spectrum installed on the computer. Should be opened by DW Spectrum.
Cannot be changed.
EXE is used for distributing videos to the users who do not have any codecs or media players
installed. As soon as the bundle is started, the Client is run and it plays back the exported video. In
this case, the data on motion and recorded fragments is also exported.
IMPORTANT. Files produced with the x64 version of software will only be viewable on Windows x64;
however, x86 can be viewed on any architecture.
As soon as export is finished, Multi-Video will be available in local files:
The following operations can be performed:
View videos (see "Viewing Multi-Videos") as Layouts
View single Items from the videos
Edit Multi-Videos if not read-only (see "Changing Multi-Video after Export").
