Both Cloudvue Gateways and C2C devices store video in 30 second increments. Cloudvue Gateways use MP4 and C2C uses MKV container formwats. The MKV video files on C2C devices are encrypted and cannot simply be copied and played. The MP4 video files on Cloudvue Gateways are NOT encrypted and can be copied and played.
Gain a deeper understanding of the benefits each of the many export file types available from ExacqVision provides you.
If an incident occurs and you need to share recordings with your management, a legal representative, law enforcement, or others… knowing which file type provides the protections or data needed, and that they can review is key.
Video may be exported from exacqVision in different formats. The table below illustrates some of the differences in these formats.
Multi-Camera: For the purposes of this article, multi-camera means many camera streams are combined into a single exported file. When exporting as .MOV, .AVI, or .MP4 each stream will end up as its own file.
Self-Playing: The .EXE file format bundles the exacqVision ePlayer into the file. This allows the file to be opened and played back on any Windows desktop or server operating system. This file format does not play natively on Ubuntu/Linux or Mac systems.
