How to: View playback & export footage on the Green Feathers app (GFTX2SC2R1S1)Updated 43 minutes ago
This guide runs through the playback function and exporting footage on the Green Feathers app for the camera pictured below. If you are unsure of which camera you have please check here.
Let's Begin -
Please note: To view playback and export footage from your smart phone/tablet you will need to have inserted an SD card in your screen and connected your screen to the Green Feathers app. To see how to connect your screen to the Green Feathers app please see our guide here. To see our Green Feathers app guide for our screen kits please check here.
The playback feature acts only as a temporary way to catch up on footage you may have missed. Once your SD card is full, the oldest footage is forgotten as new footage is added. It is up to you to export the footage you want to keep.
Playback Information:
If you click onto the playback section it will take you to a page that looks like this:
Back - This will take you back to the live view of the camera.
Playback Recordings - You will see these blue lines on the timeline, these are recordings that your camera has captured, triggered by motion detection. You can drag the timeline along and select the sections you want to view.
Record - This allows you to record sections of the playback that you want to keep and export. Anything recorded from the playback will be available in your gallery.
Image Capture - Image capture allows you to take a still image of a section of playback.
Batch Download - This allows you to capture multiple chunks of playback shown in as blue lines on the timeline. The app will then stich these separate chunks together into one video and save this in your gallery.
Delete Playback - This deletes all playback for the current day
Full Screen Mode - This will rotate the video to landscape and go to full screen.
Date - This date selection allows you to easily choose between dates, select the one you want to look at.
Mute - This allows you to mute the playback footage.
Calendar - The calendar option opens up a calendar where you can choose particular dates where playback was recorded.
Time of Day - The time across the top shows you the time of day the recordings were made
How to export footage:
Once you have recorded a section of video that you want to save you need to navigate back and select 'Gallery'
This will show you all of the recordings and images you have saved. Select one and you will see three options pop up at the bottom.
Download (Left) this one allows you to download straight to your device.
Delete (Middle) this will delete the file
Share (Right) This allows you to share the image in multiple different ways, email, text etc.
