ContaCam is another free video surveillance software that is just as good as Camera Viewer Pro. It has all the necessary features to turn your computer into a CCTV system but the scheduler is a bit limited where you get to specify only one range of time frame per day for motion detection recording.
I don't have an exact answer but I have (probably) the same unit. Buggy software, clumsy web interface.
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... ptz cams... and it works wonderfully.

From Ina Technologies: The software has been designed as universal application for surveillance cross platforms functioning all together with wireless and wired Internet webcams, Television-boards, capture cards, power-line, and USB cameras. It has web interface with the identical form and controls on the local and apart computers. Customers view MPEG coded video and have full control of the program via network that security station can be operated with no screen, keyboard, and mouse connected. Program`s modular composition significantly improves reliability because all modules operate as independent software. If one part stops working, other units go on working. For instance if the `record` component stops working, `watchdog` starts again it immediately that users don`t notice anything because they are viewing picture using a `playback` component. The software performs `repeated` recording that the `hard drive full` situation never happens. The recording can be non-stop or it can be activated by motion, human face detection, or by calendar. The software has pre-alarm and post-alarm recording. Playing back recorded video is pretty simple and performs on the surveillance server as well as on distant station using Web interface. The software makes simultaneous video playback for event examination from multiple cameras at the same time. Also recorded files can be searched by date, time or by face detected. All recorded data can be encrypted and password protected.
