[Video Record]
„ Max Video Clip: Specifies the maximum time length of each recorded file (from 1 to 5 minutes). If
you select 5 Min, a 30-minute event will be chopped into six 5-minute event files; if you select 1
Min, a 30-minute event will be chopped into thirty 1-minute event files. To decide what to set up
here, consider how often you back up your event files, and how intensive the activity is in your
surveillance area. Smaller file size makes backup process faster.
