You can instantly export video without specifying the export range. To do this, click the button in the upper right corner of the surveillance window at any time.

If you perform the export:

• in real time, then only the video frame at the moment when you click the button is available. Then, you must set the required parameters for exporting the frame (see Frame export).
  

  The date and time of the moment when you click the export icon is specified in the name of the exported file in the surveillance window. The captions with the indication of date and time of the fragment are applied to the exported frame. The date and time in captions correspond to the moment when you click the Export button. To display captions with the indication of date and time, you must set the Export date, time and titles for AVI checkbox on the Options → Export tab (see Configuring export options).

• in the archive mode or the archive analysis mode, the first frame of the exported video is the position of the pointer on the timeline at the moment when you click the button. Then, you must set the export parameters (see Standard video recordings export). When you select MP4, MKV, EXE or AVI formats for export, the video recording range is five minutes from the current position of the pointer.

After you click the Export button, the export process starts, the status of which is displayed on the export panel (see Viewing export progress).

The duration of exporting the video or a frame depends on the server resources.
