Rename recorded files

Only one duplicate recording is saved per recording file. If you create a second duplicate
recording, it will overwrite the previous copy. Download the file with your extracted tracks to
preserve it.

Rename recorded files

Recording files are named based on the filename prefix specified during configuration. If needed, you can
rename them to something more descriptive.

You can also change the default naming mechanism. See

What is a recording?

for more details about setting

filename prefixes.

To rename recordings:

 1. Connect to the admin interface using your preferred connection mechanism. See

Connect to the admin

interface

.

 2. Login as admin.

 3. Find the recordings by channel or by recorder. See

Rename recorded files

.

 4. Select the pencil and paper icon next to the filename you wish to change.

 5. Type the new file name and press enter when finished.

The web interface keeps track of the filename extension (i.e. .avi) so you do not need to
include it when renaming the file.

Delete recorded files manually

Recordings can be manually deleted via the web interface. You can delete one file at a time, select multiple files
for a given recorder or channel and delete those, or you can delete all recordings for a channel or recorder.

If you want to delete all the files on the system, follow this procedure for each channel and recorder listed in
the web interface.
