This operation rebuilds your video database by examining each file in your Werks Video Directory. You may

want to perform this operation if you suspect your video database has become corrupt by some hard disk or

computer failure. The obvious sign of a corrupt database is missing video segments in the Playback window.

This process may take a long time to complete if you select to rebuild the list for all cameras.
To rebuild your video database follow these steps:

Go to the Setup > Advanced dialog.

In the Video Maintenance section, click on the

REBUILD VIDEO LIST

button.

Recording and Playback will halt during this operation. This procedure may take a long time.

Each camera will indicate the recommended action to be taken for the files associated with that

camera. Most commonly, it simply indicates that No Action is required. If some problems have been

discovered, Werks may suggest that you execute a Repair or Rebuild operation. Repairs are

recommended if there are only a limited number of minor issues. Otherwise, a Rebuild will be

suggested. Repairs are relatively fast, but Rebuild operations can take a long time, especially if you

have many hundreds of thousands of files. You can change the action by right-clicking on the "Action

to Take" setting for each camera. The actions available are:

Click Perform Actions to start the rebuild process.

Note: Recording and Playback will halt during this operation. This procedure may take a long time if
all cameras are selected.
