Software that manages proprietary video players?

Recommended Posts

My office gets many different types of CCTV proprietary video files delivered as a matter of work process and each requires their own proprietary video player that can be found on its respective surveillance camera manufacturer's website.

 

As proprietary video players are piling up, it'd be great to have some kind of software to manage all of them -- one that preferably could automatically analyze and associate video files with its respective video player.

 

Anyone know of any software that can handle this task of managing proprietary video players?

Proprietary by definition infers exclusivity...meaning if they are in fact in a proprietary format, the software they use will be the only software they can use. If they're all just in different formats (such as .dav) that traditional video players don't like (VLC, Windows Media Player, etc...), it would be considerably easier to tell these people to convert or back the files up in a format that isn't such a pain to deal with (such as .asf). Otherwise, you'll need to continue to do what you're already doing.
