Saving Clips to an Existing Incident

To save clips to an existing incident, open the Clip Basket tab on the right panel of the Secondary Window. All currently available clips are displayed in a tree view.

Click the Add to Existing Incident button on the lower right area of the tab. The Select Incident for Saved Footage dialog appears.

If you click the Current Incident button, the Incident Amendment Warning appears.

Click OK. The Manage Evidence For Incident dialog appears.

There are two windows in the dialog:

Video Not Required for the Incident – clips in this list will not be added to the incident.

Incident Video to Keep – clips in this list will be added to the incident.

Note: Clips already saved to the incident appear in red.

Use the forward arrow button to add individually selected clips to the Incident Video to Keep list or the double forward arrow button to add all clips to the list. Use the backward or double backward arrow buttons to move clips from the Incident Video to Keep list to the Video Not Required for the Incident list. You can arrange the order of the Incident Video to Keep clips by using the up and down arrow buttons.

Once you have selected all clips to save, click Save. The Amend Evidence on <server> dialog appears.

Click OK. The selected clips in the Clip Basket are saved to your selected incident.

If you click the Find Other Incident button, the Review Incidents dialog appears.

Select the incident to which you want to add video clips and click OK. The Incident Amendment Warning dialog appears.

Click OK. The Manage Evidence For Incident dialog appears for the selected incident. Select the clips you want to save to the incident as described for saving clips to the current incident.

Click Save.

The Amend Evidence dialog appears.

Click OK. The selected clips in the Clip Basket are saved to your selected incident and a Started Save message appears on the Events tab.

When the save is complete, an Activity Complete message appears on the Events tab.

Click the message and the Confirm Hash Test dialog appears. The Hash Test ensures that the incident information is valid and not corrupted in any way.

Click Yes. If there are no problems with the video, the Video Integrity Test OK dialog appears.

The above message does not necessarily mean that all footage was successfully saved to the incident. If all footage is successfully saved, a message appears the Events tab, as shown in the following screenshot.

Click the message. The Incident Saved and Validated dialog appears.

Click OK. The Confirm Hash Test dialog appears.

Click Yes.

The following transaction record is also added to the incident:

Validation Complete. All files for the Incident Successfully Loaded.

You can view the transactions for an incident on the Transactions tab of the Incident Details dialog.

Note: Performing the validation and having the transaction record is important, as the incident may be used as evidence in a court of law. The Transaction tab provides details of how an incident was updated or modified; these details can be used to demonstrate chain of custody (or as other evidence).
