Chapter 13: Archiving recorded files
106 TruVision NVR 10 User Manual
Creating and archiving video clips
You can save important scenes in a recorded file for later reference by creating video
clips of selected portions of the file during playback. When an intruder, for example,
crosses in front of several cameras you can save the video clip of the intruder’s path
across these cameras in a single file.
Up to 30 video clips can be made from a recording.
Note: This feature is only available using the mouse.
To export video clips during playback:
1. Connect the backup device to the NVR.
2. Search for the required files to play back. See “Searching recorded video” on page
95.
3. Select the file or files to play back and click Play. Playback starts immediately.
4. Click the playback timeline where you want the video clip to start and click the Start
Clip button.
5. Click the playback timeline where you want the video clip to stop and click the End
Clip button.
6. Repeat for additional clips.
