Respondent files
The relationships between the audio files, image files, and case data is maintained by the audio and image file names. Image file names are stored in their associated text questions; audio file names rely solely on convention.
File locations
Audio and image files are stored on the UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Offline for Windows workstation at:
C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\IBM\SPSS\DataCollection\<version_number>\Interviewer\RespondentFiles\<project_name>.<cluster_ID>\<user>.<cluster_ID>
Recordings are stored in the Audio folder; images are stored in the Image folder. Each folder includes an Archive folder that contains audio and image files that were synchronized to the server.
Respondent files that are synchronized to the server are stored in the __RespondentFiles directory under the appropriate project folder.
