Side-by-side video downloads enable you to download a single video file with side-by-side dual-facing camera footage. Videos will also include a time overlay on the upper left-hand side of the video.
Both the dash cam and the Vehicle Gateway (VG) must be online and connected for video uploads to succeed. After video has uploaded to the Samsara dashboard, you can download the video. The video is downloaded using the method associated with your browser. If you are requesting video as part of the Video Retrieval Process, do not make more than three video requests at once.

Tip
To zoom into the footage after you download the video, open the file with a compatible media player.
To enable more transparency, Samsara provides a video audit log for each video that indicates who has viewed or downloaded a harsh event video.
After an administrator has clicked play or started the video with the spacebar, Samsara will log the action. The entire video does not have to be completed; just started. In addition, the video audit log will show any administrators who have downloaded the harsh event video.
For each event, Samsara also displays the time at which the action was taken.
After watching a video, the user name will appear in the Video Viewed By and/or Video Downloaded By field after the page is refreshed. Only users who are set up as organization administrators or tag administrators will show up in the Video Viewed By or Video Downloaded By fields.
