DCR Professional - Digital CCTV decoding, Player and Codec Management
Its extensive support for current and discontinued digital video formats ensures that video files can be viewed immediately. The player and codec management engine ensures all players are fully compatible with the computers operating system, reducing the risk of system crashes and codec conflicts which are common problems when installing 3rd party video codecs and players.
Once the CCTV video file has been decoded, DCR PRO can accurately convert the original proprietary digital video to a standard format such as AVI or MPEG allowing easy storage and distribution of video evidence. When combined with Case Management and the built-in DVD burning facility, a full end-to-end digital only process is achieved.
DCR PRO features a highly accurate form of screen capture developed specifically for recording from digital CCTV sources, this records the screen area only when there is a new CCTV frame of video, individual frames of video are stored uncompressed in the system memory until it is exported. The resulting output files are as close to the original as possible but with a high level of compatibility with standard media players and can also be quickly included as part of an evidential DVD. Optional analog output and compatibility with VideoBOX allow further enhancement and advanced functions such as masking.
DCR PRO Version 5.0 exclusively features the ability to extract the Time & Date information from most digital video files and overlay it directly onto the image in real-time for video sequences or on still images.

Instant Results
DCR PRO is designed to provide reliable access to many digital CCTV formats which allows users to immediately view and produce professional and consistent results. DCR PRO can be used as a technical or forensic tool and is also suitable for use at divisional support or within custody units.
The systems audit trail can therefore be used to provide statistics on system usage or efficiency. If audit trails are provided to Vision Base, our development and support personnel can use the audit trails to determine the commonly occurring formats that are not supported. Using this information we can prioritise the additional support for formats tailored to your system or local region.
