How to export an event as a video file
By default ZoneMinder saves events as a sequence of images. It is however possible to save an event as a video file. Caution is advised when converting events too video as it is very strenuous on the ZoneMinder machine, however once you have converted an event it can be viewed/downloaded any time without additional stress on the server.
- Open up the default view for an event and Click the video link located in the top left corner
- Choose a video export file type and click generate.
- Download the video to your machine. If video files have already been generated you will see them listed at the bottom of the page.
When an event gets a video file encoded for it you can choose to automatically include that event with any future exports. For a more detailed explanation on how to select and export events investigate How to export download and view events
