Downloading Multiple Files

Post by Needaholiday »

I am connecting to my IP3M-943 camera via it's IP address and selecting the 'playback' tab at the top, then selecting the day and file list. Is it possible to download multiple files as I only appear to have the option to download the files one at a time which would be very time consuming.

Thanks.

Hello Needaholiday,

There is an option to cut and download a portion of the recordings. For this you need to login to the cameras' web interface from a browser. You can go to the play back option on the cameras web UI and search the files, then click on the 'scissor' symbol and then cut the video to the length you need. The files will be saved on the location specified under set up > camera > Record path.

You need to click on the scissor then click on the starting part of the video and then click on the ending part and then click on the scissor again.

Many thanks for your reply Melvin. I will attempt this tomorrow and see what the outcome is. If I have any further questions I'll come back on this thread but in the meantime I appreciate your help, thank you.

Your response appears to be the opposite of what I would like to be able to do. Your method above appears to select a small portion from a longer clip of video to download.

I am attempting to download multiple short motion activated clips of video and not download a small part of a longer video clip.

Is there any way to download multiple short clips of video without having to download them one at a time please?

Hello Needaholiday,

Sorry about the confusion. Unfortunately there is no other way to download multiple files.
