.mp4 files stored on local disk filling it up

Post by hiklestrand »

Somewhere in the past in my trials and tribulations, I must have set an .mp4 file export in BI to store clips on the desktop of a now removed Windows profile. In a week the harddisk fills up and I remove the exported files manually, except the one that is currently being written.

For the sake of me, I am not able to find where I set this .mp4 file export automation. I have been through the menus a couple of times, looked through log files and still not pinpoint where I set this.

Are there any suggestions as to where to look next?
Too big a question?

Most likely setup per cam within the Record tab?

Check the 'Convert/Export' settings available in the Clip Viewer for anything unusual..., like having the files set to export as MP4s to the folder in question. Using 'select all' in a given clip folder will activate the 'Convert/Export' feature for all files in the folder. If selected, this could possibly continue indefinitely if files were continuously being written to the folder.
