Hey guys,

Trying to record 10 seconds of video from last night. I select "Download" in the web interface, then select the date and time (literally 10 seconds).

But I end up getting a 1gb file that starts about 5 to 10 seconds before my selected start time and ends upwards of 30 minutes or so later.

Am I doing something incorrectly? Here is what I selected:

From the web interface you can only download full recordings. That is, if you record 24/7 and you have 1Gb files, from the web interface you can only download the full file, even if you just want 10 seconds.

If you want to be able to cut a clip from that file, you would have to use iVMS-4200.

Or just playback the recording, and while you are watching the 10 seconds you want hit the record button (if that works with your OS and browser, which I do not know).
