The recorded files are stored securely. To view them, go to "Video Player", press "OK", the unit should show "No files!". Hold down on the two "VOL" buttons (VOL-/&lt;&lt;I and VOL+&gt;&gt;I) for more than 3 seconds, the unit will read recorded videos and a list of videos will show up. Use the two VOL buttons to select the one you want to play. Please let us know if this helps. Thank you.

There may be other ways, but if all else fails, install the Audacity software (or other recording software), run Audacity, hit the "pause" button in Audacity, then hit "record". The sound will play through your speakers without recording. Make sure you have gone to "File > Preferences" in Audacity and selected ""Sofware Playthrough" under the "Audio I/O" tab first. Basically, you just need a way for your sound card to hear the recording input - this way is clunky but it works.

They are an .mpv file and I think they are recorded in a Lynx FS. Also the recording directory is only 4GB and then the rest of the playback partition takes up the rest of the 2TB. I can't remember if I ever tried to play them on a pc.

Yes, you will need a recording program. I use Audicity which is a free program and works great for all my recordings.

Just recieved the DVR and I only have two cams at this time connected. After setting them up and recording (it shows a red "R" on the monitor screen) I go back to search for the recorded files. I get "No recorded file !" I went to HDD and it shows the harddrive "online" but it will not record the files to the HD. What am I doing wrong?

If it is a sound file, I believe you would have to play it through the computer speaker and press record on the recorder.

Found no operating instructions...they leave you totally on your own! Practice with button presses and see when you get a recording or not is the only way I've found!

You can get hardware that allows you to record onto the computer. The hardware is a memory hog. Or maybe it is software.

Wish I could help, but I too have no experience in recovering deleted files with this recorder. Ralph.

Create a new recording first. Then, go to SETTINGS/INPUT/Playthrough and turn it to ON then you should be good

If they are in the right format. But I do know there is a list in the manual. I can record on to a flash drive and play it back

There is no record option with a tape nor does it have a cd burner. It does have a headphone jack so a computer hookup may work.

Any USB works, You must load a playlist of the music you want to hear onto the thumb drive and it will play them in sequence or random I believe, It can't record to the drive just play.

Hi, If the Tiny little red light is on it is recording, Make sure you have it set to one minute in recording options not five Minutes. Files will be to large to load. This video should help.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-dfvPX0dOs

no software needed, just play the tape, press record and music will go on the usb memory stick

I am sorry, but since I have no intention of downloading anything from the recorder to any PC, I honestly do not know if this is possible. I would contact Sony to be sure, good luck.
