DVR Archive
Frame-Accurate Incident Review
Find historical footage by timestamp, review incidents smoothly, and move
through archived segments without file browsing.
Continuous MP4 Recording — Auto-segmented into 10-minute chunks.
Date-organized storage: /YYYY/MM/DD/HH/ for predictable retrieval.
Exact Timestamp Search — Enter a date and time, jump directly to the right
segment. No scrubbing required.
Seamless Cross-Segment Playback — Dual-buffer player transitions invisibly
between 10-minute files. No interruptions at segment boundaries.
Multi-Speed Playback — 0.5×, 1×, 2×, 4× speeds. Review long incidents at
4× without missing critical moments.
Live Recording Support — Plays back in-progress recordings
(.mp4.tmp growing files) without waiting for segment completion.

FAQ
Common Questions
Everything you need to evaluate My-VMS for your organization.
My-VMS is designed to scale horizontally. Camera streams can be distributed across multiple
media server instances, so capacity can grow with the camera fleet through configuration.
Deployments with 100+ concurrent streams are supported.
RTSP-compatible camera streams can be ingested by My-VMS. PTZ control supports Hikvision
(ISAPI), Dahua (CGI), Axis (VAPIX), and Hanwha/Samsung (SunAPI) natively, with automatic
vendor detection on first PTZ use. ONVIF-compatible cameras can be auto-discovered and
configured without manual provisioning.
My-VMS is 100% self-hosted. All video recordings are stored as MP4 files on your own Linux
server's filesystem or network-mounted storage. No data is sent to any cloud service. You
retain full data sovereignty and can apply your own retention and encryption policies.
None. My-VMS is entirely browser-based. Operators access the dashboard through Chrome,
Firefox, or Edge with zero installation required. The React 18 frontend handles live
streaming, archive playback, PTZ control, and fleet monitoring natively in the browser using
HLS.js, FLV.js, and the WebRTC API.
Yes. Recordings are indexed for fast timestamp search. Enter a camera and time, and My-VMS
resolves the matching 10-minute segment for playback. Footage retention is limited only by
your storage capacity. Operators can also play at 4× speed to review long time windows
rapidly.
My-VMS includes a background Disk Synchronization scanner that reconciles filesystem MP4
files with the database on startup. Any orphaned recordings created before a crash are
automatically discovered, registered in the database, and made available for playback. No
manual intervention is required.
Yes. My-VMS can be extended with optional computer vision analytics for customer-specific
use cases such as human, vehicle, and object detection. Detection events can be integrated
into alerts, overlays, and searchable archive metadata depending on the deployment.
