How to View Video from a Surveillance Camera

Video surveillance is almost a mandatory component of modern requirements for security on protected objects. It is difficult to find a company or business that would not have taken advantage of this system, especially in large cities.

Install on your computer the necessary codecs. Usually the cameras observing attached original encoding software designed specifically for a particular system monitoring. These codecs (if for some reason it is not included), you can try to find on the Internet, focusing on the company-producer.

Play the video in the recommended system player. If the player is installed on your computer for some reason cannot read the video, download the other. Look, in what format to save the video, pick a player that plays this format.

Try to find some of the following players. They are the most common, and play most popular video formats. Here are some of them: Windows Media Classic, K-lite, KMPlayer, and VLC. Video systems monitoring is most often used in Mpeg4 format or umv. BTW, you can buy the pinhole CCTV Mini camera at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other surveillance cameras (e.g. VStarcam C7824WIP camera) there with high quality and reasonable prices.

If you cannot open the file in its original format, get the opportunity to re-encode the video in the format that suits you. Make it possible with the help of special programs (Any Video Converter, ProCoder, Adobe Encoder, VirtualDub). Look for information about transcoding video on specialized forums and websites.

Use transcoding program Any Video Converter. To do this, open the video in the program (file-import-Video). In the window that opens, select the format in which you want to convert the original file. Navigate to the folder on your computer where the file should be saved. Start transcoding.
