Default file location

[packer.country.usa]

I have three cameras and want to save the files into 3 seperate folders

Cam1 --> C:\Camera1
Cam2 --> C:\Camera2
Cam3 --> C:\Camera3

I am able to change the default location, but not for each individual camera... Is this possible?

Yes, you can do this. Setup in BI Settings > Clips & Archiving your desired folders. Then for each camera goto Properties > Record > Profile and set the appropriate folder.

OK, not sure if I follow...

I have set the BI Settings > Clips & Archiving folder to the D: drive

I currently have all my cameras' file being dumped in this folder...

Now for the camera properties at Properties > Record > Profile, I select the profile (in this case Profile 3) and all I get is the Folder dropdown of New and Stored... I want to change the folder to 'Porch' or Backyard' as per where the camera is located... I can't seem to do that...

Sounds like you have not properly added your folders to the BI Settings > Clips and Archiving. You need to configure Aux1, Aux2, Aux3, etc to be used for your path to folders. Once these have been configured then the camera properties will display the newly configured Aux# in the drop downs.

I also believe it is possible to set paths to folders from the camera settings directly, but you would have to read the help for that one as I am not as familiar with it.

OK... I will play with and see what I can come up with..

I was able to get the folders setup as needed. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
