Important • You can extract a video from only one video window at a time. • Do not specify the Windows folder or the Program Files folder on the system drive as the destination. Video cannot be saved to these folders. • You cannot save only audio data. • When extracting a time range that contains different video formats (such as JPEG and H.264), divide the range by format and save each video segment individually. • When the data size of video being extracted reaches 2 GB, extraction will stop and the video extracted to that point will be saved, even if the specified end time has not been reached. Play back the .mov file to check if the specified length of video was saved. When data size is expected to exceed 2 GB, divide the extraction time range. Refer to "Data Size and Bit Rate Estimates" (p. 26), and calculate the estimated data size. - Calculating time in minutes to 2 GB (JPEG) 2,097,152 KB/(data size per frame (KB) x recording frame rate (fps) x 60 sec.) - Calculating time in minutes to 2 GB (H.264/MPEG-4) 2,097,152 KB x 8/(bit rate (Mbps) x 1024 x 60 sec.) Specify the video extraction time range so it is within the calculated time estimation. • Block noise may appear when a video recorded in H.264 and saved in .mov format is paused during playback using QuickTime. • Initially, noise may be present when playing back extracted video recordings that include audio. Note Extracted video is saved in QuickTime movies (with the .mov file extension) and can be played with QuickTime (or other players that support the .mov file type). We recommend that you use QuickTime Version 6.5.1 or later. 104

Important
You can extract a video from only one video window at a
time.
Do not specify the Windows folder or the Program Files folder
on the system drive as the destination. Video cannot be
saved to these folders.
You cannot save only audio data.
When extracting a time range that contains different video
formats (such as JPEG and H.264), divide the range by
format and save each video segment individually.
When the data size of video being extracted reaches 2 GB,
extraction will stop and the video extracted to that point will
be saved, even if the specified end time has not been
reached.
Play back the .mov file to check if the specified length of
video was saved.
When data size is expected to exceed 2 GB, divide the
extraction time range. Refer to “Data Size and Bit Rate
Estimates” (p. 26), and calculate the estimated data size.
Calculating time in minutes to 2 GB (JPEG)
2,097,152 KB/(data size per frame (KB) x recording frame
rate (fps) x 60 sec.)
Calculating time in minutes to 2 GB (H.264/MPEG-4)
2,097,152 KB x 8/(bit rate (Mbps) x 1024 x 60 sec.)
Specify the video extraction time range so it is within the
calculated time estimation.
Block noise may appear when a video recorded in H.264 and
saved in .mov format is paused during playback using
QuickTime.
Initially, noise may be present when playing back extracted
video recordings that include audio.
