Under normal operation, we can backup the video to local drive. It comes with an 'avc' extension. It also gives us a player program to play the AVC files. Using this program, we can convert the AVC to AVI. Using disktool provided by Leohuangdi, we can unplug the Hard drive from the DVR and install it to Windows PC. We can access the hard drive and play the video inside. But for my case, almost all data cannot be played, especially data with 'SYSTEM' attribute. The error is 'The event file is not existing'. Anybody use disktool before? Got the same problem? Any newer version of Disktool? Another problem with disktool, we cannot fast forward when viewing in disktool. Thanks.

Leohuangdi, Thanks for your program. I've tried disktool, it can read the DVR hard drive and list the data. But i cannot play the data, cannot play almost all data. There are data with 'SYSTEM' attribute and 'MANUAL' attribute. I can play the manual data, but not the system data. Almost all the data attribute is SYSTEM data. My DVR recording mode is automatic, everytime it turned on, itu record all the time. https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B_62HtPpTIKHMTAxYjc4M2YtMzIyMC00Nzk2LWI2NzYtOGFiYzZjYWM5MGNl&hl=en_US Btw, my DVR had wrong date setting, 14 august 2011. Any problem with this? Thanks.

Leohuangdi posted this program, I have tried it, unplug your hard drive from the DVR, install the hard drive to a windows PC, install the program, then we can read the data/video from the HD. But I have problem here, I can see the data, but most data cannot be played. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=26583 https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B_Tf3Yb1yhhROWI2ZWU2MmQtZTE3ZC00NjVlLTgwNjItNzBlNjk3ZmQzZDky&hl=en_US&authkey=CP2o9toI Thanks.

Hi All, We are using Avtech DVR, 16 Channel KPD 679. Our customer needs to save the recorded data for 18 month. The problem is, transferring/backup data from DVR to local PC using Video Viewer, takes very long time. 5 minutes video need almost 5 minutes transfer time, for one camera. It seems it is not possible to backup data this way, not enough time for 16 cameras. What I have tried: 1. Plug out the DVR hard drive and install it into PC. We can read the content of the hard drive, but cannot play it from the PC. The extension of the files is .stream. Anyway to play these files? If we can do this, then we can replace the DVR's hard drive every 2 or 3 months. 2. Backup to external disk via the DVR USB port. But DVR can only detect small size USB Flash Disk. External USB HDD is not recognized. Not sure about the transfer time too. Is there any solution for this problem? Thanks. Anto

Hello All, I'm using AVTECH KPD 679/67x. Trying to do direct backup from the usb port of the DVR. If I plug an USB Flash Disk 4 GB into the DVR, the DVR can recognize the UFD and can backup data into the UFD. But when I plug an external USB Hard Disk, either 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch, both external USB is not recognized by the DVR. So I cannot backup data into the external HD. What is the problem? Anybody success to do direct backup to USB External HDD? Is there any compatibility problem? Or related to the file system/FAT32/NTFS? Thanks.

Hi All, I just bought IP camera, TPLINK 3130G, without built-in IR. In dark condition, this IP camera cannot see anything, just all black. I installed this IP cam beside an analog dome camera with IR, just to know if the IR from the dome camera can help this IP camera see in darkness. But it seems the IR from analog camera cannot help the IP cam to see in darkness. When viewed at the same time, in dark condition, the dome can see in darkness, the IP cam still cannot see anything, totally all black in monitor. Any idea to make the IP cam can see in darkness? Thanks. Anto

Let say you have 4 camera installed. When there is motion in camera1, it seems that the DVR will record all the 4 channel, right? Can we make it when there is motion in camera1, it only records camera1, not all the camera/channel? In the DVR screen, when there is motion, itu will show up a new yellow icon (running man icon), when it is recording, it will show up a green icon (camera icon). Thanks. Anto

Hi All, I'm testing AVTECH KPD 679Z-D, 16 channel. Firmware Version: 1013-1004-1002-1003 Using a PC connected to the DVR, using Video Viewer software, we can view the live video, working fine. When we try to playback recorded video, from the video viewer, I click ke 'play' button, it just playback the last hour video, show up all the 16 channel. It didn't ask what date and time for the playback video. So we cannot preview yesterday or lastweek video? Any idea we can solve this problem? Thanks. Anto

first, try to connect it over lan, is it is okay, then we can try to connect via internet. to connect via internet: 1. make sure you have public ip, if it is not static, you can use dyndns to map your ip to a subdomain name. you have to register to dyndns. 2. have to set your router for port mapping. make sure your dvr port is not blocked by your isp, if blocked, pls change your dvr port. 3. try to connect a few times...

okay, problem solved. scorpion, thanks a lot.

Dear All, I'm going to install 2 unit of Avtech KPD677ZA (H.264, 8 channel) on 2 different site. Both site is connected with wireless LAN. So we can view both site, one site at a time, using computer. Is it possible to view both dvr, using one monitor, at the same time? Is it possible to combine all the 16 camera into one monitor? So we only need one monitor? Thanks. Anto

Hi, I've tried a few different types of DVR and DVR Cards. For remote viewing, they usually come with a client software need to installed into client computer (usually this client software only runs under Windows) Some of the DVR can also be viewed from internet browser, but we have to install active-x component. This type of DVR can only be viewed from Internet Explorer which support active-x, cannot be viewed from firefox or not Windows PC. I've never tried viewing from mobile phone. Because there are many kind of phones. How do we know which DVR is capable for phone viewing? Should we install special application come with the DVR into the phone? Or are there any standard phone application that can view almost all type of DVR? Or any additional application installed into PC DVR that makes remote viewing become easy for any type of phone/PC? I asked Dlink about their IP camera. They said they are using RTSP protocol for remote viewing, no client software needed, and can be view from almost all OS/PC/Phone. Is this true? RTSP protocol is/will become standard for CCTV remote view? Any DVR/card support RTSP protocol? AVTech? Thanks.

Hi All, I've been using DVR Card 8 Channel with QX2006 for a few years. Suddenly I my vendor cannot provide this card to me anymore. Anybody can supply this card for me? I'm at Jakarta/Indonesia. Thanks. Anto

Hi All, Is there any CCTV camera can be put inside an oven, which temperature is aroung 100 - 250 Celcius. Going to install in a factory, they have 8 oven to put the Camera in. Oven for mixing some chemical stuff. To make sure the baking process is doing well. The oven size is aroung 2m x 2m x 2m. They said that other factory has installed this kind of CCTV. Best Regards, Damai

Should the braid must made of copper? I usually use Cable Pro with 90% or 95% braid coverage, I think the braid is not made of copper, but some kind of metal colored white/silver/iron color, not yellow/copper. Is it okay? I think even Belden coax cable, the braid is not made of copper? Thanks.
