Create and archive 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.
