EXPORTING IMAGE OR VIDEO FILES
Your recorder can export single images in a JPG Image file format and save video clips in an AVI format. JPG and AVI file formats are the
most commonly used graphical formats today. Virtually every computer offers some type of support for these file formats which make
them the most ideal formats to use. Only one camera can be selected at a time for this function to work.
Image
Images can be exported in
JPG
,
PNG
, or
BMP
formats. The
JPG
format is optimized for compressing full-color or grayscale
photographic images (uses lossy compression, and will create a small file size). The
PNG
format is designed to maintain more
quality while still compressing full-color or grayscale photographic images (uses a lossless compression, and will crea a medium
file size). The
BMP
format can be used for full-color or grayscale photographic images (uses little, or no compression, and will
create a large file size). Use any of these options to export a single image or frame.
AVI
AVI image data can be stored uncompressed, but it is typically compressed using a Windows-supplied or third party compression
and decompression module called a codec. AVI is used to export a video clip.
