Hi. I just pulled a video clip off off a DVR used for closed circuit cameras. I just have one camera in test mode and pulled a 3-4 minute clip to USB.
I took it to my computer and none of my video programs will play it. I need to find out if it's just a codec i'm missing or is there something wrong with the file itself.
would anyone be willing to take a look at the file? it's about 2.3M. i can email it as necessary..
thanks
Chris

I have seen raw mpeg files that would not play in windows, can you inport it into virtualdubmod?

i just tried to open using virtualdub, virtualdobmod, and avidemux. All gave invalid file type.... I'll try to contact the manufacturer tomorrow unless there are any other suggestions.
Thanks for the help -

Most security camera DVRs use proprietary codecs. Google the model number to see if anyone has cracked that model.

Why not post the video file somewhere like megaupload so we can look at it.
