How do I export a session for editing?

Create a ZIP file containing session videos and a synchronized Adobe Premiere timeline when export is available.

Before you start

• Make sure you are signed in to NodeCam on the phone you are using.
• Open the correct recording session before changing settings or recording.
• If you are working with volunteers, confirm who is the session owner and who is contributing a camera angle.

Steps

1. Open the session as the owner.
2. Confirm the session has videos and that uploads or processing are complete.
3. Find the Export Session section.
4. Choose Export as ZIP.
5. Wait for NodeCam to download or assemble the ZIP.
6. Save the ZIP to Files or share it with the editor.
7. Open the included Adobe Premiere XML timeline in Premiere when applicable.
8. Verify all camera angles are present before archiving or deleting local copies.

What to expect

• The ZIP contains session videos and a Premiere XML timeline aligned using NodeCam timing data.
• Large services can take minutes to export or download.
• Only owners or users with permission can export the full session.

Common gotchas

• Export may fail if videos are still processing.
• The ZIP can be very large; use WiFi and enough device storage.
• If a camera never uploaded or transferred, it may not be included.

If you still need help

Contact NodeCam support with your session name, device model, iOS version, and a screenshot of any warning or error message. Do not delete recordings until upload, export, or transfer has been verified.
