Viewing Backup Video
Along with copying the files, the system adds a Backup Video Player (McdPlayer) and an AVI
converter to the USB flash drive, external HDD, and external USB CD/DVD-RW drive. Use the
Video Player to view the backed up video files on your PC.
NOTE: You can also view the files using the browser-based remote surveillance software.
To view backup video:
1. Connect the USB flash drive or external USB
HDD with the backed up video data to your PC;
or insert the CD/DVD-R/W disc into your PC’s
CD/DVD-RW drive.
2. McdPlayer should launch automatically. If
Autorun does not start, search the drive/disc
and double-click mcdplayer.exe to launch the
Backup Video Player. McdPlayer launches and
begins to load your backed up video. For more
details, see “Viewing Backup Video” on
page 35.
NOTE: If the drive contains more than one video
file, first select the file and click OK.
3. When the purple progress bar has loaded, you
can begin to playback the video.
4. You can also view backup video on the DVR
NetView remote client software. For details,
see “Playing Backup Files” on page 54.
