Can you watch the recorded videos on your computer? If so how do you make that happen? Can I see the owners manual before I buy?

You can watch the videos on your CPU you just need to open the file and view it in windows. This is an easy process just pull the memory stick out of the unit and plug and play with your laptop. The instructions are not that helpful you can figure out how the unit works by using the menu system on the screen. Take care.

Its supper simple to watch the video clips on your computer. Just plug the camera into your computer using the included cable. On the camera a USB connection will pop up. Select it and watch either the front or back camera vids. Check out this for info on camera http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X16kiyDtTms

yeah, depending on which one you get they have either sd card or micro sd card which you can remove at any time to transfer videos to the computer just like any other video. owners manual should be on the website that is selling it as a pdf. owners manual really isn't as helpful as it could be. i only used it to figure out what the buttons do, but just fooled around with it until i got it set up. overall decent unit.

Simple usb connection is all it takes. Select the correct connection and open folders, Just about like using an external drive on your comp. Sorry I do not even know where i put it anymore.

yes you can watch it on you computer. it comes with a USB adapter to transfer recording to you computer. it comes up as a file and is easy to watch the recording. I went to youtube.com and watch this good review. http://youtu.be/X16kiyDtTms

Yes, you can pull out the SD card and insert to your computer. The owner's manual is useless. It's written in bad English. On youtube, there is a well-demonstrated video you can watch, just search for "Review: Front & Rear HD Car Dash Cam"

I have the same question. What program can I use on my computer to access what is recorded when I plug the recorder into the computer?

You can view recorded video on the device. Video is lower quality. You can also plug it in with the provided cable and view video on your computer.

The unit does not record video but your computer can. Software is available from many vendors for free or at cost to record the output or you can have the units send snapshots of activity when motion occurs.

Check youtube for a better preview it's worth it. Works well no problems. Even though it wasn't for me I'm glad I got it for someone as a gift.

I'm just curious if you've tried recording something on the video setting and playing it back on your computer to see if the sound comes out. The "speaker" or playback on the cameras are piss poor, not that they should be anything great, but it might be possible that you can't hear it on the camera but the sound pics up on video and you can hear it on playback. Hope that made some sense. I hope it works out for you.

What is the nature of your question? Are you going to buy one or do you already own one?The one I have does not seem to be able to record. I have tried several times and failed in every case. The unit apparently has recording software that can be accessed but not engaged. I think I hear a hard drive spinning... It could be a lack of ability on my part but I don't think so. There have been computers, digital cameras and assorted other electronic gadgets in my life for 15 years. - Lars

Mine has a video out, but I haven't used it, so I can't confirm the quality (I usually take the micro-sd out to transfer files if there's any I want to save or review). Per my experience with the rest of the unit, there's no reason to expect it wouldn't work fine, though.

I don't think there's a way to stream video from a computer; pretty sure I have heard that from several sources, including the manual. The player just doesn't have software to do that. It seems (for video playback) to require discs that are finalized in DVD, BD or 'avchd' video format; it won't even play videos off the USB drive, which I'm rather disappointed about.

I Can try to find it for you but its a terrible Chinese Manual mispellings and it doesnt say a word about what the 2 small plugs are over all it turns good video to terrible video, doesnt record fast enough for smooth video in even 640x480 anyway mines in a drawer lol if i have the manual ill scan it and email it if you like just leave an email Robert

It's a terrific starter laptop!! I don't know anything about the videos but the speed will depend on your internet service ( eg. Verizon Fios has about 3 different levels)

That is what I did with this camcorder and a video capture software. BUT!! I bought a refurbished one of these and it ruined one of my tapes. bye bye precious home videos.

Unfortunately I'm having the same issue. It continually records but it breaks as a 2 minutes video clips. I just got this cam not too long ago so I will have to figure out how to fix this problem and I'll let you know.

I connected the Dash Cam to my computer and downloaded a video to my hard drive. Otherwise, can't add any technical know how?

I don't know guys, I still haven't figured it out. Reading thru other posts here is making me think I'm going to return this thing. I really thought I'd like it, but if I can't string together my video clips to burn to DVD, WHAT is the point? It doesn't seem you can ask this question at the Vado official site either w/out first entering all the numbers off the box it came in. What a pain, I don't carry the box around w/ me. They also do not have an 800# that I can find on the site to call. Frustrating! I wonder how many customers they are losing?
