Export recordings

This article demonstrates how to export recordings from Swing Catalyst / Motion Catalyst.

How to export recordings

Recordings can be exported in several ways, either from the Stack or from the Explorer itself. Functionally there is no difference between them.

Exporting from the stack

Right-click menu on a recording in the stack, with Export opened to Export recording and Export all recordings in stack

Exporting from the Explorer

Explorer, Recordings tab, with sessions on the left and the Export List with one recording and the Start Export button on the right

Recordings can be exported from the explorer by dragging a recording to the export list (see below screenshot) or by right clicking the recording and selecting from the available export options.

Right-click menu on a recording in the Explorer, with Export opened to Add recording to export list, Add session to export list, Export recording as raw data files and Export session as raw data files

The Explorer Export list

Export List holding 1 recording, with the Start Export button at the bottom

Export options

Exporting as a take file (the default option) will allow the recording to be imported by other Swing Catalyst or Motion Catalyst users. All of the data collected with the recording is stored with the take file.

If you wish to export just the video file(s) select “Video only”. Note if you have multiple cameras this will export each angle as a separate video file.

For details on the raw data option please see our raw data article.

What do you want to export? with Recording selected, and Export Options Take File (with data) selected over Video only (mp4)
