Note
This button is available if the user has permission to view and export the archive.
Successful video fragment download in the background when the app is minimized is not guaranteed.
The maximum fragment size is 5 minutes.
The archive is paused, but playback remains available. Markers will appear on the timeline, which can be used to highlight a fragment of the archive for export. By default, the video fragment of -60 and +60 seconds from the current time is highlighted.
Two labels appear on the screen showing the time boundaries of the fragment, along with two buttons. Tapping the checkmark starts the export with the set parameters. The file will be exported in the background, and the user will see a notification window about the start of the export.
Tip
Long-press the notification to view full details.
Export with timestamps🔗
This option can be enabled in the app settings when selecting Export archive with timestamps.
The timestamp mode significantly reduces the resulting video size but increases the server load.
When enabled, each frame is stamped with a timestamp (1–2 second margin of error). Export speed is reduced to 300–400 frames per second. Timestamped video is essential for reconstructing event timelines and piecing together what happened.
By default, export without timestamps is selected.
