Abstract
The disclosure relates to system event assisted live video capture. A baseboard management controller (BMC) allocates, in its available memory space of the memory, a first video block and a first node having a video block pointer and a next node pointer, and assigns the video block pointer of the first node to indicate the first video block. The BMC captures video frames of the host computer, and stores frame data and a timestamp generated from each frame in the first video block. When the first video block is full, the BMC allocates a second video block and a second node, and assigns the next node pointer of the first block to indicate the second node, and the video block pointer of the second node to indicate the second video block. The BMC then stores the frame data and the timestamp in the second video block.
