Example The folder is 02172006 for a recorded date of February 17, 2006. The filename is
[CH1]08_30_08 for Camera 1 and a video start time of 8:30:08 AM. The filename with the
AVI extension contains the video and the filename with the SMI extension contains the date
and time overlay to be played back on top of the video. For a time and date overlay you will
need the FFDSHOW codec installed on your PC. In the FFDSHOW Video Decoder
Configuration enable the subtitles option (see Appendix B, Playing AVI Archive Clips).
The clip will be automatically saved to the file location specified in General Setup, page 49.
Navigate to the folder, find the AVI file you have archived and open it. This will allow the
video to be played back using programs such as the Windows Media Player.
See Appendix B, Playing AVI Archive Clips if your archived clips are not playing back on
your local PC.
