digitalconfusion 0 Posted February 18, 2015 Anyone know if Dahua is the only company is the business that uses .dav files? I am trying to find out where my .dav files came from (make/model of camera, and/or DVR). Pulling metadata has been zero help. I've tried mediainfo, gspot, exiftool, and photome. Starting to wonder if there just isn't any data about my needed info to be had. Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

devsec 0 Posted February 21, 2015 DAV is a proprietary file format created by Dahua. They do not share information about the specification of their format to anyone. The only way you could possibly find what you're looking for is with a Dahua tool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tjynde 0 Posted February 24, 2015 .dav is a very common file within DVR systems. Without being 100% sure, i don't think Dahua is the creator of the file. I know a couple of brands, that uses the .dav system. A simple .DAV player should be able to play the recorded file. Unfortually i don't think you are able to locate, where the .DAV file came from.
