It's from a DVR system, if he can get the files to me/access to the computer it's running on I'll have a go at sorting something out.

Google GSpot codec viewer, will tell you what formate (video/audio codecs) the file is.

If you install FFMPEG then I believe the command would be something like this:

c:/ffmpeg/ffmpeg.exe -i c:/myfile.dav

That should bring up all the info about the file on screen - certainly works on Linux.

First one comes up a pink screen, second link stopped by the firewall.

I'll have a bash at re-naming. Cheers.

Tried just about every link on google and nothing works. Need either a player or a convertor for this file type that will actually work and not come up with a blank or multi-coloured screen.

I think it's a company specific file extension by the looks of things but I can't use torrents to get the software as I'm on the works computer.

Any ideas?
