Hi All, I have installed about 60 DVRs for my employeer, diferent models, like AvTech 760, CPCam CPD561, CPD551 and use VideoViewer version 0.1.7.4. I just want to create an application developed by myself to retrieve DVR status, like date time, and alarms fired, but for this I need be able to connect to DVR. Question is, anybody have knowledge about this, or where I can get info, protocols, commands. Main goal to accomplish is create a list of address, an periodically retreive status info, or alarms, because are to many to watch. Actually Thanks in advance.

It seems like Video Viewer. I will try to explain more. Supose you have 60 DVR, each of then, with 4 cameras, and only one person trying to view something on this. A task very dificult. A software with capabilities to connect, to a DVR an get from it, alarms triggered, not to view just get status. In that way just connect to that DVR and see what it is happening. Until now, I just get from raw data captured in http protocol, the way this software autenthicate in DVR, but then DVR send raw data back to client. I need to detect commands to get information from DVR, like Date and Time, and alarms.

Mostly are AvTech and others CPCam. but all use the same sotfware, named "Video viewer Application" Version 0.1.7.4
