I use IP Cam Viewer Pro which is an android app.but. I use Blue Stacks on my laptop (Dell XT3) and I can use/view my cameras with it. As far as playback, yes it does have record/playback but I haven't used it but all the options are there for searching, etc. IP Cam Viewer Pro is a paid app but the author is fantastic in keeping up with the latest dvr's, cameras, etc. I also use it with my wireless ip cams. And it works wonderfully.
My DVR is a 16 channel EyeOnet 5216AH (Duah I think) and I really like its recording and setup features BUT the live viewer software is really bad. It simply does not work. I am looking for software I can try first, that would be a live viewer that can communicate with my DVR but not an IP viewer. I have Blue Iris and it is excellent software and allows me to look at my DVR analogue cameras and IP cameras at the same time but with fourteen cameras running Blue iris takes a lot of juice to run. So I would really like a live viewer as in my Night Owl viewer that would show the sixteen analogue cameras that could run on my DVR, ten of sixteen channels presently installed with four IP cameras on my LAN. The Manufacturer's software is PSS or Smart PSS viewer and it just does not work. It would be great to hear from someone who has solved this problem and has found a really functional DVR live viewer software package.
