Exporting a period of Axxon PSIM main archive

Export of the archive period allows exporting video recordings for a specified period into a single AVI file.

Export of the archive period is performed via the playback control panel.

To export the archive period, do the following:

  1. Go to the archive browsing mode (see Archive browsing modes).
  2. In the function menu of the Surveillance window, select the Export submenu, select the Export period item in the submenu.

In the Export period to file window, set the export parameters:

  1. Date and time of the record start and end (1).
  2. The full path to the file to which the record will be exported (2). By default, the file is exported to C:\Users\%user name%\Documents\Axxon PSIM\export\. The file name is formed as follows: <Camera name><Start date and time specified in the export window>_<Scene number>.avi. For example, "Camera 1 2022-12-02 15-57-22_001.avi". If you set the Default filename checkbox (3), this field will be unavailable for editing.
  3. If you want to save the record in the format, in which the archive is stored on the disk, set the Original format checkbox (4). The record will be saved in AVI format.

    Note

    By default, the Original format checkbox is not set, and export is performed in the specified format (see Export of video recording with sound and Export of silent video recordings). If you close the Export period to file window without clearing the Original format checkbox, the record will be exported in the original format ignoring the codec settings. To export a record with encoding, open and then close the Export period to file window, or set the value of the NativeFormat parameter to 0 in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/AxxonSoft/Axxon PSIM/Video registry section.

  4. Click the Start saving button (5).

To stop the export process, click the Cancel button. When video saving is cancelled, the AVI file will contain only that part of the archive that has already been exported at the moment of cancelling.

Note

If captions were added to the video image (see Configuring the captions showing), they will be present in the exported record. The captions size is set when configuring the Captioner object and may change if the video resolution is reduced. To enable the adaptive captions size, use the ExportFontAdaptive registry key (see Registry keys reference guide).

Note

The size of the resulting file must not exceed 2 GB.

Exporting a period of an archive located on the edge storage

 Exporting a period of an archive from the edge storage is performed in the same way as exporting a period of Axxon PSIM main archive, except for the following differences:

  1. To export a period of an archive from the edge storage, you must switch to the edge storage playback mode.
  2. Files will be exported to the format supported by the edge storage, not necessarily .avi.
  3. If the edge storage does not support exporting video records, then the period of the archive cannot be exported. In the function menu of the Surveillance window, the Export period item won't be available in the Export submenu.
