Hi, I am a Newbie to editing video files but I have a problem with a couple of files taken from a DVR - specifically a Solidex dvr114, 4 camera security setup. The device can output both to a PC, has also a DVI O/p and also a BNC composite o/p and finally can record files to a USB key. The DVR is a Chinese made device and does a reasonable job for what it is intended for. <br><br>My problem is that I have an incident recorded on these files which is quite small in size relative to the overall screen size and is very dificult to pick out the detail of what is going on - the incidents are also quite short relative to the hour long recording segment.(Someone appears to be pocketing takings???!!!)<br><br>The files will play using the proprietry software supplied but apart from stop/start/slow there is no way of 'zooming' or capturing just the appropriate sequence.<br><br>I have taken the file properties from the PC and it shows the files produced are h.264 at 704x576 @25fps BUT trying to open them with anything other than the supplied software has so far proven impossible - I have tried a number of 'convertors' and AVS editor Quick Time/VLC/Media player et al among some others to no avail - just says file type not supported!<br><br>I have even thought about outputing the files from the DVR and capturing them (somehow?) onto my Nvidea card (DVI I/P) but that seems a long winded procedure.<br><br>Anybody have any ideas of how to explore further?<br><br>Thank you<br><br>Frode
