Is this version 1.3? My Sony recorder is RDR-GX300 and can recognize only ver.1.3

According to the card specs that come with these blank discs, the Sony card says: These discs are compatible with DVD+R 4.7 Gbytes Basic Format Specifications Version 1.3. It also says to check your hardware manufacturer to confirm compatibility. Depending on the differences in use environment, equipment, & configuration, the actual usable capacity may be smaller than the one described on the device. 1 GB= 1 Billion Bytes. I have not had any trouble with them. My recorder is 5 years old & is a Panasonic Recorder. The Sony Discs are 1x-16x. It also depends on Recorder age of the unit. When the recorders wear out I've noticed that formatting any discs start acting up as far as discs being excepted by the recorder if regular cleaning of the unit does not work after so many years of recording. This Panasonic is my 3rd recorder which has a hard-drive. The other two were Lite-On and the oldest a Phillips model. Most of the original blanks were of different capacity in their early stages like 8x blanks. Now virtually all are 1x-16x today.

To the best of my knowledge no..bought my camera back in 07 and since 3 times upgraded and if memory serves me right when I tried to play back other tapes from a Sony and Panasonic camcorder did not work..way want to wait and see if anyone else had luck in doing so but am 90% sure it is a no go...

You can download it using that link, but you must check the current firmware version to assure you are using the correct update. There is a problem with their instructions to do that. They should say: Turn on the 3D camcorder Press the joystick to enter the playback menu Move the joystick down and hold for a minimum of 5 seconds Press and hold the photo-shutter button while still holding the joystick. After about 3 seconds, you'll see the status menu. Check at 4th position "FW Ver:"...

JVC MOD files open perfectly in Nero Vision. Renaming them to MPG for me caused them not to play correctly in WMP (and no sound), and they would not open in Quicktime Pro. Bad choice by JVC.

Yes but it's an old version with questionable authenticity. Whatever the software was that I used that came with it was also an old version (very old, like version 2 when the most recent version is 7 or 8) but worked flawlessly to capture over 50 hours of video.

Mine is running 4.2.2. Sony usually is on the slower end of the update cycle.

this camera is the 1st consumer grade camcorder ... about ... 2005 ... ironickly it orginizes video and audio differently than its competitors of the time .... it can record on 8mm , hi-8 , digital 8 ....and read back its info. BUT NO .... if you recorded on a camcorder ....say .... the SAMSUNG SCL901 ... (another old camera) IT WILL NOT PLAY ON THE SONY DCR-TRV280 !!! try google in image mode to find the old cameras of the time , find the name of the old camera , and search for it in amazon.com ...or... E-bay ... or graiglist... or other such as garage sale or street flea market or street fair exetera ... if you do find a camera that'll play your old tape please transfer to dvd via computer....(DVD recorders aren't made enymore!!!) if its of HISTORICAL value , documtery value or of DIARY (family value)

Should be ,I think incompatibility only occurs when you have a newer player designed to also download compressed files from your computer with hundreds?of songs, in that case you may need a higher grade md.These should be good with all older players downloading in real time.Ask Sony they would have definitive info.

Hi, this Sony Compact Disc Player/Recorder, doesn't support recordings from a digital recorder. -Ely

I have the same problem. I contacted Sony customer service and they were no help, however they are sending me the lastest firmware update on disc to see if that fixes anything. Have you found any resolutions yet?

yes, it does. But it isnt very good. You may want to look into Studio. Version 14 works well with that capture card.

Here's an educated guess- in the past Primos has pretended to have "proprietary" formats for the game cameras. In reality they were just jpg's with a new file name on the end. You might want to try and rename some popular file formats like MP3 to whatever the Primos "format" is and give it a whirl. So if the Primos format says "coyote.PRIM" or something like that, rename your file from "newsound.mp3" to "newsound.PRIM" and see what happens. That's assuming the .PRIM part- I don't know what their files actually look like. Hope this helps.

The one I got in Dec 2013 is 1.0 :-(, but it was on sale so maybe they cleared out the old ones, not sure how much a difference it makes as the 1.0 one ROCKS!

Same problem here. Recorded 3 songs, did an ISO upgrade, now nothing. Currently running Ipad 2 iOS 8.4.1. I do believe I have a 100$ paper weight. I'll stick this thing next to my other computer trash in hopes someone comes up with a clever fix someday.

Probably V1.0 but I really don't remember for sure. It was a year ago that I bought it. Sorry.

I tried to record using a Sony DVD+R DL disc but it ran out of space after 2 hours. Sony says that this disc is not compatable with the DVDirect VRD-MC5 (although the manual indicates otherwise) and I should use a Verbatim disc, which I haven't tried yet.

Call Sony direct and ask them. I don't think so. It supports some of the Sony digital voice recorders.
