Available storage is shown in the top left of the control software.
Name: If a video file has a duplicate name, the software will append a _1, _2, etc., to the end of the filename. A red border will appear if an invalid name has been entered. Clients commonly use time tags for unique file names.
Directory: Customize directories to easily store and separate your inspections.
Tags: Can be applied to the Name and Directory, depending on which field the cursor is in.
Quality: Choose the resolution, which will set the bitrate of your video. Videos are recorded at 30FPS.
Encoder: Choose the type of compression applied to the videos. H.265 (HEVC) is an extension of the concepts in H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC) and compresses video twice as efficiently resulting in significantly better video quality.
Video files will split into 10-minute chunks. In the event of a power disruption, the potential for corruption of data is limited to only the most recent chunk.
Quality | Resolution | Bitrate (Mbps) | 512GB SSD | 1TB SSD |
SD | 720 x 480 | 5 | 212 hours | 400 hours |
HD | 1920 x 1080 | 25 | 42 hours | 80 hours |
4K | 3840 x 2160 | 100 | 10.5 hours | 20 hours |
To start, press the record circle on the bottom of the main screen. Once recording begins, the recording time will display above the button.
