Capturing DVR to Hard drive

[frikadil]

Hi there.

I am sorry if there is already a topic for this, but I couldn't find anything.

My landlord has a Futronic DVR1000 (tried googling it, couldn't find anything)

It is a Surveillance machine with 4 cameras plugged into it.

It has a removable hard drive and the surveillance cameras copy onto the HD.

In the back of the machine there is only standard av connections.

There is no usb or anything like that in the back.

There is however a connector that is light green and looks very much like the back of a hard drive.

THere was no manual or additional cables supplied with the device when it was installed.

I need to copy surveillance form this machine onto a HD and then rip into DVD.

It is rather time sensitive, as it contains footage of my landlords wife being mugged outside the gate, and the sooner we can get this to the cops the better chance they have of nabbing the crooks.

Many thanks for any help. Greatly appreciated.
