Viewing files from HDD without DNR
« on: November 15, 2016, 01:02:10 PM »
Can you plug a hard drive with DNR recordings directly into a PC USB plug and view the files?

If you let the DNR format the drive for NTFS, I believe you can...I haven't tried this with mine though.  ::)

You can only see the files in Windows Explorer.

 It is unknown how to play them back.  I don't think that is possible.  It appears that up to 4 streams are encoded into 1 file, so you'd have to know how to separate them out.  The file system is laid out in date/time format.
