System Requirements

Idrive D8 USB Hard Drive Adapter

EXT3 driver for windows - https://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsd/files/Ext2fsd/ NO!

This driver is garbage and causes blue screens of death on windows 7 & 10. Not an option

Disk Internals Reader - https://diskinternals-linux-reader.en.softonic.com/

Can view and play linus filesystem videos. Can be used to copy videos to the NTFS(windows) disk

Video Playback Software (VLC Player?)(MDVRPlayer)

Using DiskInternals Linux Reader

Start> Programs>DiskInternals Linux Reader

Plug the Hard drive or SD card into the windows machine's USB Port.

This is a Linux file system which windows cannot read so windows will ask you if you want to format the disk. You must select Cancel or your data will be destroyed.

Select the DVR hard drive or SD card with the video files

Navigate to the Folder which has the date you are looking for.

Select the video you wish to view/copy

Single click to view

double click to copy

Video files naming and identification

The disk will have one folder for each Date of recording Example: 2017-07-06

Video Segments in these folders will have names that indicate the date and time of the recording.

Example: H20170706-091745NAN1P0.avi breaks down into:

H20170706- (Year, Month, Day)

091745 (Hour, Minute, Second) of video start time

NAN (Figure it out)

1P0 (Channel number 1) 2P0 (Channel number 2) etc. (look into all channels in one file and select what we want for default)

Copying video recording files

On PC copy and paste to a new location. (Hard drive is read only on the PC)

Use Remote control and thumb drive? - figure it out

Use Wired network connection (only available on the back of unit so not a good idea.
