Do I need the main CCTV client software installed to use Zippy Player?
No Zippy Player is a standalone module for playing files. The Client software is a great way of retrieving the footage in the first place though.
Do I need to install Zippy Player player on my PC?
The single channel version is completely portable requiring no installation, it will even run from a USB stick.
The multi channel version will need installing, registering and activating via Internet connection on a per-PC basis prior to use.
Which file types will the Zippy-Player play back?
Because different manufacturers output different file types and use different codecs, a simple task such as playing back CCTV footage can be a nightmare when it should be so simple. Often if you haven’t got the client software you can be stumped which is no use to the Police if they are trying to use CCTV as evidence.
We’ve taken the guesswork out of it by producing this software in various versions to make it work with all the leading DVR manufacturers. We even do a 4channel version of them all too!
Zippy Player for alienDVRs - 1CH (SOFT1515) and 4CH (SOFT1517)
Zippy-Player for HikVision - 1CH (SOFT1615) and 4CH (SOFT1616)
Zippy-Player for ZIP - 1CH (SOFT1315) and 4CH (SOFT1317)
Does Zippy Player play files synchronously ?
No, the multi channel player does not synchronise the individual play windows, they play independently of one another.
