Figure 5-3 Save Video to Memory section
When you use the Save to Memory option, frames will be saved as image files similarly
to the simple saving (see
). Video will be saved as a .smx file
which can be replayed and converted to the .avi file with the SMXView utility that goes
with the standard SMX-160 software package.
Saving video directly to memory can slow down the camera’s output visualization, but
this method insures that no frames are missing in the saved file.
