D-Viewcam 3.0 problem
« on: January 29, 2010, 06:58:00 AM »
Hello
I have 2 dcs-2121 cameras a pc running D-Viewcam 3.0 and a nas from Western Digital mounted on the pc as a network drive where the program stores the scheduled videos. The problem is that D-viewcam generates on the pc hard-disk huge temp files, approximately 20 Gb in 4 hours and so the pc hard-disk in about a day is completely full.

The temp files aren't logs because they are binaries

Any ideas, thanks in advance

What anti-virus software are you running on this PC and is your PC part of a domain network?

With DCS-920 on 640x480 MJPEG mode max (=15) FPS D-ViewCam generates about 2GB per camera per hour, so the Megapixel DCS-2121 could surpass that easily...

The pc is runnig with nod32 and isn't part of a domain is part of a workgroup with another 2 pc and few others networks devices (cameras, nas, printers, router ecc...)

I saw another interesting thing, if I stop recording the temp files don't stop growing but if i disconnect the cameras the temp files disappear, so could they be temp files used for transcode the video stream!?!?

I believe it is Nod32 I have seen this instance before using same anti-virus application but with D-ViewCam v2. The node app seems to keep everything recorded in the temp folder for scanning and not removing it until it is restarted. Are your recorded videos being saved in the destination folder as well and available for playback?
