When the WiLifeTM  cameras record video, the video is saved as a Windows Media Video file (.wmv).  

In version 2.0 and above WiLife Command Center automatically applies metadata to each video file in order to make them more self-documenting and definable from other video clips.

Details written to the video clip include the camera number, camera name, bitrate, and whether the file has been protected, triggered an alert, and was uploaded to your WiLife Online account.

Though the default title of the video clip is the camera number and the date/time it was recorded, you have the ability on this screen to enter a new title and add unique notes about the video clip in the available Description panel.   

Many of these attributes display when the file is opened in the Windows Media Player.

Note: All of these metadata flags can be used as search criteria, using the Platinum Online Search and Playback tool.
