# How To Capture Video
## Some site conditions can't be captured in a photo.
Water flowing through a BMP. A pressure test holding (or not). A blowoff test running. Sound and motion can tell the story a still frame leaves out, and now you've got that option without splicing clips together later.
Now you can record up to 30 seconds of footage directly on a pin, attach it alongside your photos and notes, and let it carry through to your reports, playable in both the Interactive Report and the PDF.
**How to use it:**
1\. Start creating a pin
2\. Switch the camera to video mode
3\. Record up to 30 seconds (with countdown), and save.
4\. The video attaches automatically and plays inline on your report.
**Viewing your videos:**
After your pin saves, you can rewatch your videos on your Pins, in All Photos, and on Reports that include your pins.
Important to note: we have to convert files captured on iOS devices to be played on Windows devices, this will result in a small delay for the first watch.
