I'm fairly new to ZM. All is working GREAT but what I wanted to know is housecleaning issues.

Now that ZM is recording all this video (Modetect)...what do I with the stuff I don't need? Does ZM delete them after 30, 60, 90 days? I see it mentions something about archiving but what if I don't really need it?

Is there a way of selecting ALL the videos and deleting them?


I guess what I'm really looking for is some guidelines as what to do with this stuff....


Any help appreciated...

You can create such filter.
Look at the example "purgewhenfull".
Open events list - click on some camera events.
Click on ShowFilterWindow, select PurgeWhenFull in list Use Filter you can then specify your criterias and save it. It will be run by the time you specify in zm options.
