MarcoZandrini 0 Posted February 14, 2011 What software, hopefully free(!), would you recommend for video editing? What video format (e.g., wmv) provides the best picture for later identification of cars and people. BTW, our cameras (GVI GV-NC-201VAH) are streaming mjpeg and mpeg4 with minimal compression.

Soundy 1 Posted February 15, 2011 Well, Windows Movie Maker is free and included with XP SP2 or downloadable from Windows Live for Win7 (dunno about Vistsuck). The big problem you're likely to run into is, most DVRs export in proprietary or semi-proprietary formats that can't be directly imported into most editing software.

wilnotdie 0 Posted February 16, 2011 Would it be possible with a WebDVR software? I made a backup with the program and it spit out an executable file. Is there anyway to get straight video or extract the video from that file? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarcoZandrini 0 Posted February 17, 2011 We've solved our problem by enabling motion detection. The software creates a file for each time it senses motion. So, if motion detection is triggered six time, six separate files are created. Thanks! Mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
