D-ViewCam 2.03 and 24/7 recording
« on: August 11, 2009, 09:34:06 AM »
Perhaps I have a configuration setting wrong here.  I am able to record a 24-hour period fine. However when I go to the computer the next day, the previous day's recording(s) are deleted...and only the current day's recording(s) are present.  Any ideas on how to correct this?

FYI - not out of disk space - as I have a 1 Tb dedicated drive.  If I have 5 cameras, what should I set the recycle size to be for each cam?

TIA

Have you adjusted the save location path D-ViewCam saves to from it default location or any of the default settings here? If so what is it changed to?

And I assume you have it set to recycle. And what are the recycle settings set to? Another thing is try taking it off recycle and see if the issue goes away.

I am going to just turn off recycle for the next 4-5 days and see what it does with the recordings.

If you still have issues ensure that when you set up the 24/7 scheduling to also include a specific date. You can define for example one month or one year then click add, then click save. It should stop it from deleting the previous days recordings.
