The continuous video recording is started automatically with start of data recording. As soon as ibaPDA data storage has been started the synchronization data sent by ibaCapture Server is stored in the data file together with the measured data. This is how the measured values are connected to the video recording. When stopping the data recording, the data file is closed and the connection is removed. In doing so, ibaPDA does not have any impact on the video server.

To make sure that the video streams are correctly stored with the measured data, for both continuous and triggered recording, you must check the camera signals in the signal selection pane of the data storage configuration dialog:

An unchecked camera will not be available later in ibaAnalyzer, although ibaCapture Server has recorded the video stream.

With ibaHD-Server v1.6.4 and higher, it is also possible to store camera synchronization data. Video in ibaAnalyzer can then be used as if a DAT file was opened. For this to work, the camera signals also have to be enabled in the HD data store configuration.
