Capture snapshots
You easily capture a snapshot of a video image for later reference. The image is saved on the
unit in JPEG format.
To capture a snapshot:
1. In playback mode, when you see an image that you want to capture click the snapshot
button .
Create 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.
Up to 30 video clips can be made from a recording. Archived files can be played using the
TruVision Player tool.
To create video clips during playback:
1. Search for the required files to play back. See “Advanced search video menu” on page 33.
2. Select the file or files to play back and click Play. Playback starts immediately.
3. Click the Start Clipping button to start the video clip click the End Clipping button
to stop the video clip. The clip is automatically saved on your PC.
Note: Go to Configuration > Browser Configuration to see where on your PC the clips have
been saved.
4. Repeat for additional clips.
Create bookmarks
You can bookmark the important scenes in a recorded file for later reference.
Bookmarks flag the start of a scene. Up to 64 bookmarks can be saved in a video file. There
are two types of bookmarks:
• Default bookmark : All default bookmarks have the same generic name, “TAG”.
• Customized bookmark : You can give a name to a bookmark for easy identification.
The time is automatically entered. The same name can be used for several bookmarks.
Bookmarks flag the start and end of a scene. Up to 64 bookmarks can be saved in a video file.
To search for existing bookmarks, see “Search bookmarked recordings” on page 37 for further
