Rename recorded files

Recording files are named based on the filename prefix specified during configuration. If needed, you can rename them to something more descriptive.

You can also change the default naming mechanism. See Configure recording file size and type for more details about setting filename prefixes.

To rename recordings:

1. Login to the Admin panel as admin. See Connect to the Admin panel.

2. Find the recordings by channel or by recorder. See View list of recorded files.
3. Select the pencil and paper icon next to the filename you wish to change.

4. Type the new file name and press enter when finished.

The Admin panel keeps track of the filename extension (i.e. .avi) so you do not need to include it when renaming the file.
