How to view backed up camera footage?

Hi,

I backed up some continuous recording from the cam v3. Now how to do I view them? They just 1min recordings.
Do I have to copy them back into the sd in order review them on the camera app?
Thanks,
David

If you want to view them in the camera app, then yes, they need to be on the SD card and in the camera as they were before.

If you want to view them on your computer or on your phone in a different app, load them into any video player and you can watch them. Some programs will let you load a bunch at a time and will automatically splice them all to run together as if they were one file.

There is a walkthrough in the following post about how to join all the videos (or as many as you want) into one video, so they aren’t just 1 minute each:

App to join all the recorded videos automatically from 1 folder

Windows based SOLUTION!!! (and commentary to Wyze) Should work for any number of hours folders for the SAME DAY only. Don’t try to combine files across different days… it won’t work. Changes the audio track interpreter (CODEC) so it will work on virtually any video player. Once you have the FFMPEG.exe file and create the text batch file, it is very reusable. Trying to export from Wyze app on Android and also on iPad with 4.5 hours of source takes 4.5 hours! You have to sit through the whole…
