Does the H.264 have a zoom capability?

No. But I really didn't get that far. Their third party software is a kind of a joke and the CD they shipped was corrupt. I just boxed it up and I'm waiting for an RGA to return it. If the company fails to make good on it I'm going to pitch it in the trash. I have better things to do than to look for fixes on the web for known issues. Don't waist your money.

Yes. The resolution is not great, but I have used it with both the Zoomy app and with the native Windows viewer by selecting the correct input. You can take photos with either application as well.

Yes and no... The camera does have this capability, but the quality of focus while zooming in and out (during recording) does not appear to be all that consistent/reliable. I just did a little test before replying to this question; there were places within the zoom range where the camera simply could not/would not focus.

I suppose you can. It delivers AVCHD 1920x1080 files, so any modern software should be able to handle it. I know when I preview video, the windows player opens and plays it easily.

Yes, the webcam control software which starts when the cam is on has the ability to zoom in.

MPEG4 or H.264 will depend alot on the codec. I use a q-see surveilance camera recorder that is on the internet and log into it with the wind when I am out and about. It encodes H.264 streaming audio and video. On a cellular modem I can have 4 streams open to the recorder and tap on any one of them to go full screen instantly. H.264 / MPEG 4 is one of the best compression methods in use today. It uses about 12% of the CPU to view a single stream and resize it to full screen

anyone care to elaborate on the codec differences in gritty detail? H.264 and AVCHD Lite are both relatively knew. It would appear the Lumix can capture comparable PQ at a lower bit rate (-3 to 4mbps) but anyone have any real world results of what this translates to in terms of file size difference on a given clip?

Yes, you can zoom in when recording video. But you do have to turn off the microphone in setting or it won't work.

Not sure. Mine never worked properly and the zoom function was non-functional.

Yes. You can record in multiple formats. I personally prefer H.264. I was using AVI for a while but the file size was too huge.

If your device supports H.264 and RTSP then I would say yes, otherwise your device will not be able to see the video stream. I looked up the Digimerge and it runs embedded Linux and says it supports H.264 and RTSP. I use an old version of Linux on a PC with Zoneminder that didn't support it but I was able to compile a newer version of ffmpeg and zoneminder and it now works great. So I would say you have a pretty good chance it will work as-is.

The only zoom you have is the resolution and screen width you pick before you film. No running zoom.

Yes. You can zoom, but you can't adjust the zoom once you've started recording.

According to one of the reviews, you can't zoom while using he video function.

Not sure because I have a different DVR brand but probably yes. I end up returned this camera due to the zoom function issue.

I don't recall. I purchased this picture frame as a gift, uploaded the photos then shipped it. My guess is if it doesn't mention a zoom in the description, there's a good chance it doesn't have it.

Yes I can, but only with composite (SD-720x576) from tv settopbox. I can't captured HD movie with component from tv settopbox. I can captured from my HD Camcorder (SONY) with component 1920X1080.
