That is your video out to save recordings on a DVR

Try Everfocus web site.

DVR is meant to be used as playback device it's recorded information is stored in an encrypted form in the device. Even if the data is retrieved it might not be playable in another device.

Here's the manual. Read it. http://www2.everfocus.com/downloads/manuals/ECOR_manual.pdf

On some DVR's you can reset the password by downloading .bin files from the manufactures website onto a thumb drive. I've done it for other models just not Everfocus. It's pretty simple if you can get access to those files. After you have them on the thumb drive you power down the device, plug in the thumb drive, the device scans the thumb drive and resets your password back to default, hope that helps!

You can use restore to take the computer back to a date that you know that it worked. You can use right click and open with to set the program, you can reinstall everfocus. You can manually set the file associations.

is this the hard drive you recieved with the DVR? it is possible that the HDD is set up in the wrong format. windows sets up your HDD in a NTFS format which is compatible with most DVR's but i know there are some EverFocus units that read the HDD in a diffrent format. if this is the case you need too check in your owners manual in the HDD section, it should tell you what format it records onto, then place the HDD in your PC and reformat it to the right one.

You can reset the password. If you have another computer and a USB flash drive - see http://www.rmprepusb.com/tutorials/12---bootable-usb-drive-to-reset-windows-user-pasword

you can purchase a programable universal remote at most electronic stores, if your looking for a factory replacement I would check out this web site. I hope this helps.

The EverFocus EDSR Security DVRs use standard PC Parallel (PATA) hard drives. I have used ATA100 and ATA133 speeds with no problems. There are no PC-type settings required except as below. The DVR has it's own internal firmware and will format the drive to its requirements.

If you are using a SINGLE drive tray, the largest hard drive I know will work is 500 GB. Set the drive to Master and you are done with the hardware setup. (CS Select would also probably work.)

If you are using BOTH drive trays, the largest hard drive EverFocus says will work on the EDSR100 or EDSR110 is 320 GB. Set both drives to Master and you are done with the hardware setup. (CS-Select on both would also probably work.)

Do NOT set any drive to Slave!

Lock the drive trays; if you don't the DVR will not go into record.

Press the STOP key and then press the MENU button. Go into the SYSTEM menu and do a DISK RENEW. This will erase the hard drive and also prepare it for DVR recording.

Do this by using ► or ◄ to select DISK RENEW. Change NO to YES (by using ▼ or ▲) and press the ENTER button. Highlight YES again by using ► or ◄ and again press the ENTER button.

Press the MENU button to exit and reboot the DVR. Then press RECord and you should be recording.
