In some cases, you might need to record videos from a single camera into multiple Archives.

For example, videos triggered by Detection Tool #1 go into into Archive #1, and videos triggered by Detection Tool #2 are recorded into Archive #2.

For more user convenience, C-Werk offers an option to visually combine records from different Archives.

To view a combined Archive, you need:

  1. Go to the Archive selection menu (see Selecting an Archive).
  2. Check boxes for the Archives to be combined.

Records from all checked Archives will appear on the timeline. You can apply any system function to a combined Archive.

Note

Clicking on a particular Archive brings you to viewing videos from this Archive only.

Note

If you select multiple archives for a particular camera, and then switch all the layout to Archive mode, all cameras will be set to multi-archive display.

When combining multiple streams from the same camera into one Archive, the highest quality stream is prioritized.

For example, if:

  • a lower quality video stream is permanently recorded into Archive #1,
  • and a high quality video stream is recorded into Archive #2 by VMD, 

then the combined Archive will consist of high quality motion-triggered records and low quality "other" videos.
