Hi b noir.
The player came on the CD with the DVR. I didn't have to install it in Windows, moreso just drag the folder and run it from there. The DVR from what I understand runs on Unix (if that helps at all).
I guess I'm puzzled at one of two things here: Is it an issue of having the right codec, or a whole player? As someone had mentioned before, if the headers/end-of-file is missing, many players won't play it?
It's obviously a valid file (of some kind), as it plays back (in the provided player). It's just a big problem that I can't convert it to something workable and burn it onto a DVD.
I've gone ahead and uploaded the file. It's 128MB and can be downloaded off my server here: For those of you willing to give it a shot, maybe you can find out something I cannot. Many, many thanks!
