Disk File System for Embedded NVR

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

We are developing a Embedded NVR. Wanted to see which is the best file system. We had a Chinese NVR with us. Just wanted to see which disk file system it is using. It was found that it is not using any file system !!! How is this possible ? Any advantages ?

 

Please help....

 

Thanks in advance,

Subbarao

Hello iTuneDVR,

 

Thanks for your suggestion. B/w I am curious, from performance point of view whether ext4 is worse than proprietary file systems ? Please suggest.

Many many Thanks for quick reply. By your following statement, If I understand correctly, you are saying that selecting ext4 is a big mistake for NVR. Please correct me if I am wrong.

YES.

It's my opinion.

 

Ext4 is good, but not for such tasks.

For large loads DVR,NVR, this is too slow.

That's why the dahua has its own direct access system. This provides fast recording, reading, and also it is necessary to store a lot of additional index information describing the video data.

 

In addition, the type of data storage is organized as a tape rewritable in a circle and you can not delete a specific segment (well, almost) for security.

 

If you are developer, so make reverse eng dahua solutions!

Hi iTuneDVR,

 

I found that the NVR we have is using WFS0.4 file system. How can I get library / SDK for this ?

 

Thanks,
