 * Delete the term isn’t made up, but seems barely notable. You could stick ‘proprietary’ in front of lots of terms but that’s not really the basis for an article. Some of this article looks like original research or commentary to me. There may be some content which, if sourced, could be merged into Video copy detection or one of the existing articles on copyright. Mccapra (talk) 03:45, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete A rather poor WP:ESSAY where someone seems to be mad that security camera recording standards aren't the same from a few years ago...but the market has gotten to the point where nobody would support only one media player/format now anymore (if you're still using Windows Media Player in 2019, your organization probably needs an IT tongue-lashing). This is a seriously out-of-date article that needs major updating if it's to be kept (and it also needs any source...it's zero-sourced).  Nate  • ( chatter ) 04:03, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Seems more like this should be on Digital video recorder rather than a separate article.  Hintswen   Talk |  Contribs   14:42, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Unsourced opinion from 2006. A properly referenced discussion of the issues presented here could be included in Closed-circuit television or Digital video_recorder, however with no references there's nothing to merge, it's also not clear what the appropriate redirect would be. This article is really only about DVR as used by CCTV systems, as it's only such DVR systems that appear to use proprietary formats.Pontificalibus 15:43, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
