RECOVER THE UNRECOVERABLE

Recovering critical data from DVRs can be further complicated when the data appears to be deleted or overwritten or the DVR itself is non-functioning due to physical, water, or fire damage. DVR Examiner can even recover inaccessible data from unallocated space, which is critical when a DVR has been recently formatted or video has been deleted.

PLAYBACK PROPRIETARY VIDEO

Playing video that’s been recorded in a proprietary data format is challenging. Maintain the highest possible quality with DVR Examiner’s vast collection of codecs and downloadable proprietary player library. DVR Examiner also offers export in Open Video format for many filesystems, allowing users to play video using a standard media player.

DATE AND TIME CORRECTION

DVRs are often set to the incorrect date and time, and correcting the date and time usually requires manual calculations. With DVR Examiner, you can leverage the offset configuration options to let DVR Examiner correct dates and times for you.

HANDLE COMPLEX CASES

Investigations that involve multiple sources of DVR data can amount to more work for you. DVR Examiner allows you to ingest multiple hard drives from the same DVR or multiple DVRs from multiple locations in one case file. Easily follow suspects from camera to camera and location to location. Plus, you can compile and export large amounts of data quickly.

ONE EASY-TO-USE TOOL

DVR interfaces are often complex, and it’s rare that any two interfaces are exactly alike. DVR Examiner allows you to bypass complicated DVR interfaces to deliver a consistent, repeatable user experience for every case. Plus, DVR Examiner’s easy-to-use interface provides an intuitive workflow easily understood and adopted by technical and non-technical stakeholders alike.

“DVR Examiner is a blessing. I can finally view DVR hard drives and it’s so easy.”
