USING THE PLAYBACK SOFTWARE
The Playback software included on the accompanying software disk will play back the video
files created by your DVR. These files have a .264 file extension and will not play on standard
media player software unless you convert them to .avi format using the Playback program.
Install the Playback software to your computer as normal before attempting to view video you
have backed up.
To view a video file on your computer
STEP 1. Copy one or more backup files
to your PC.
STEP 2. Launch the Playback software
and select “Open Local File” from the
File Menu.
STEP 3. Navigate to the file you wish to
play back. It should have a .264 file
extension.
STEP 4. Once you’ve loaded the file into
the program, click the Play menu and
select Play.
