Can you record videos on the memory pro duo card? If so, is it the same quality as videos recorded on disc?

Yes, recording at the same resolution is possible with either media, up to 1080i. I seem to recall a slightly different maximum bitrate but not the specifics and getting my hands on the manual is more trouble than I care to go to. That information is available online if you deem it important.

Sorry, no there isn't. Sony Pro Duo Card is priority for Sony ONLY. Just like Sony Bata Max, the rest of the world VHS.

nope, you can store basically anything on it, the card just states an example of how much memory the card holds by giving an example of how much video it would hold, you can store anything on it! (I have one just like it!)

Your videos will go on the mini dv tape only. Memory card is for pictures only.

I have always selected the option to not format the card and have had no trouble with recording images and video, as well as downloading those images to my computer. Not sure if that helps at all.

The instructional manual indicates that you can record to the SD card. However there are only certain types of cards that are compatible with the unit and the amount of recording space will also vary with the type of card.

Nope SD card is only to take low quality JPEG images. All video recording is captured to the DV tape or to an external HDMI capture device.

Not sure I understand the question. I have no issues with the video it records. The files are AVI type files and all I do is copy them from the SD card to the computer, and play them using Windows Media Player. Have not had to convert the files to any other type of video file type.

If you recorded on this pen with a full charge until it died, you would have just under 4GB of recorded material. I would recommend transferring the recordings to a computer and wiping the card out before the next use. There's always the risk of corrupting the videos if you leave it on the card. I know it's not a direct answer to your question, but I thought if you knew some of the details, is might help you decide on the card size. Cheers!

I've been using mine for 5 days now, and got about 5.5 hrs till the CARD FULL message popped up recording in 1080p. I'm still learning, instructions are vague at best. I switched over to the 5 min loop. If I read it right, it should now just keep recording over the older footage. So far, it's a really cool cam............

There are a couple of popular 3rd party software platforms that can be used for recording video. Blue Iris and Ispy come to mind. Disk utilization varies depending on the frames per second you require. 7 meg per minute would probably be the max.

Yes, you can. This unit only records when there is a DVD in the drive bay-I originally thought there was a hard drive to buffer the recording; there is not. Great unit, have using ours for a couple of years.

I was able to record videos from my computer on these disk. Hope this helps.

Video playback is a bit hit and miss. Some play, some freeze the machine. I am trying to get the spec for compatible formats for .avi and .mp4 from Coby and waiting for a reply.The standard mini-USB plug cable allows you to manage and transfer files between the frame and a computer. The cards in the DP-102 will show as external drives on the PC.

mine records videos on tape and stills on sd card or if you have a Diamond VC500 USB 2.0 One Touch Video Capture Device you can record on your computer.

I've recorded video until the card filled up. Deleted it and did it again for several other events. Never had a problem. Works great!
