Find Dahua recording and export it

Where the function is intended for

During an incident, a estimated time is often sought. Without clear channel names and accurate time, this can waste unnecessary time and may lead to the sharing of the wrong segment.

Setting or condition

Check camera name, time zone, and recording format before anything happens. Determine who is allowed to search or export, and how long the footage will normally remain available.

Making a conscious choice

First, select a wide time frame, compare it to a second camera position where available, and export only the relevant fragment. Preserve context regarding date, channel, and reason.

What you check afterwards

Open the export on a separate device and check the image, timestamp, and completeness. Record where the file is safely stored and who received it.

Frequently asked questions

Can I share a recording directly via an app?

That can sometimes be done, but check the format, completeness and privacy before sharing.

Why make a test export?

Then you will discover the process before there is a time pressure.
