How to download files from SD card to local drive

Post by smithcam »

I have all of my camera footage being stored on my SD card in the back of my 1080p Wifi Video Camera, but when I remove the card from the actual camera its self, I'm am unable to access the footage as if its locked. Any suggestions on how to view and transfer the footage to the laptop without having to download them all from my Amcrest Pro program?

Thank you much,
Smith

Does it help if you first click on "EJECT", under Setup > Storage > Destination > SD Card?

Came across this thread in google results, also looking for a way to back up all the videos on a card, and getting an error that the card is not readable. Ejecting as described above did not fix the issue.

Hello contact,

Not sure why the card says its not readable. You can download files to PC from the playback option on the web interface of the camera. You can download individual files or a section of videos from the timeline using the 'scissors' icon.
