Recording control apparatus, recording control method, and recording control program

A recording control method comprising:

• acquiring video data capturing a scene around a vehicle;
• recording the video data in a predetermined area;
• when occurrence of a save-triggering event predefined to trigger saving of the video data is detected, defining that video data including a point of time of detection of the save-triggering event to be saved;
• and
• defining, when occurrence of an marking event, which is different from the save-triggering event and for which it is defined that a point of time of detection thereof should be recorded, is detected as an event and when the save-triggering event is detected within a standby period defined in association with the marking event after detection of the marking event, that video data including the point of time of detection of the marking event and the point of time of detection of the save-triggering event to be saved.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a recording control program comprising computer-implemented modules including:

• a module that acquires video data capturing a scene around a vehicle;
• a module that records the video data in a predetermined area and define that at least a portion of the video data should be saved;
• and
• a module that detects occurrence of a predefined event, wherein
• the module that detects that an event occurs, when a save-triggering event, which is defined to trigger saving of the video data, occurs or when an marking event, which is different from the save-triggering event and for which it is defined that a point of time of detection thereof to be recorded, occurs, and
• the module that records:
• records, when the module that detects the marking event, the point of time of detection of the marking event, and
• defines, when the module that detects the save-triggering event within a standby period defined in association with the marking event detection of the marking event, that video data including a video at the point of time of detection of the marking event and a video at a point of time of detection of the save-triggering event to be saved.
