VLC 1.0.3 can't play .VVF file (CCTV Video), sample attached

[achernyakov]

VLC 1.0.3 on Windows XP fails to play the .VVF file linked to below (which is CCTV video).

VLC opens the file and the player slider moves as though it's reading the file, but it doesn't show any video. Based on resizing the VLC player window, it seems VLC doesn't detect the video track.

I believe this video has 4 video tracks (it's a 4-channel DVR), only Ch. 1 has recorded video in this file.

This video was recorded with a Lorex L214251 DVR.

It is known-good data - the Lorex player can play it, as can another 3rd-party viewer.

The data (~6MB): http://rapidshare.com/files/325562869/12242108.VVF.html

Should that be some common file format? Because Mediainfo does identify it all.

Yes, it is one of the industry-standard formats for CCTV camera video and audio.

Edit:

I believe this is a video format called VideoVista, which is an Italian company which offers a streaming solution.

I put the file on my webserver:

I changed to extension from .VVF to .bin so that the web server knows to send it as binary data.
