Vivint Playback™ Autosaves Recordings and Creates Clips

Vivint DVR technology, called Vivint Playback™, doesn’t wait for you to schedule recordings—this surveillance video recorder technology autosaves every hour of continuous recording. But it also helps you find key moments easily. When Vivint cameras and other sensors in your home detect motion—for example, when there’s unusual movement in the hall at night or your kid finally makes that basket from the free-throw line—Playback™ automatically saves the events as Smart Clips™ and flags them on your timeline. Review all your Vivint camera recordings and clips anytime from the Vivint Smart Home® App.

Vivint Smart Drive™ Stores 30 Days of Footage

Some security cameras only save motion-activated footage, but Vivint video monitoring records 24/7 (sometimes the context leading up to a break-in is just as relevant as the event itself). But admittedly, that’s a lot of security camera DVR footage that needs a home. Enter the Vivint Smart Drive™, a sleek external storage device that automatically stores your last 30 days of continuous footage and syncs to your whole security system through the Smart Hub™ so you can pull footage up on your smartphone anytime.

How Much Can the Vivint Smart Drive™ Store?

An empty Vivint Smart Drive™ has room for an entire terabyte (TB) of data—which is about equivalent to the following data amounts and file types:

1 TB (terabyte) =1,000 Gigabytes
2 million photos
2,000 full-length HD movies
30 days of continuous Vivint video surveillance footage

How Many Cameras Can I Use with Vivint Smart Drive™?

You can connect up to four cameras to your Vivint Smart Drive™ without putting undue stress on your Wi-Fi network. That means you can spring for an extra camera facing the basement doors and expect the same stable HD quality from your security footage as before—plus the same performance you usually expect when you’re using home Wi-Fi for streaming, gaming, or shopping.
