What format are the video files recorded in? Are they viewable without the software?

Hi I did not try other player. I just downloaded the player from the zalman website as it will show you both cameras, front and rear on the same window.

Hi Philip, the videos are created in market standard mpeg4 format, as you supposed.

I use a SD card with FAT 32 and the video format i use is XVID AVI (MP4) or DIVX seems to work best.

Records .avi files, something a bunch of MAC video players can handle easily. Playback is simple IMO.

No Im afraid it doesnt Convert Video Formats. Its Playback Not Editing Software.

If you just drag the video file from the camera folder your desktop, it saves as Type of File: AVCHD Video (.MTS). If you double click on the file it automatically opens in Windows Media Player. I usually edit my videos anyway through Sony Vegas, so I have the option of rendering them in what ever format I want to use once they are edited

ive had .avi and mp4 files uploaded but received error messages until i downloaded a free video converter program called "Any Video Convertor". Its a great program to use and its FREE.

The Lorex saves recordings in .AVI format. The only complaint I have is the narrow window format.

It was NTSC formatted. If you want to use it with both Windows and Mac then format it with ExFAT file system.

The raw footage is in .mts, I use Handbrake (free software) to convert the files into the type that I want. Not a big hassle, I am guessing that the raw files are in a .mts format as it is uncompressed.

Yes - the video is standard MP4 format which can be viewed by Quicktime or other apps like VLC.

I don't believe that you can...NO.However, saying that; the video recording always produces a jpeg from the first frame or so of the video, that appears when you download the video to your computer.

So I ended up using the photofun studio and I could watch the vids. I actually could upload them directly to youtube from there too, but I didn't record them in jpeg and that was my problem. Thanks for the help though!

i am no computer, or camera "wiz" -- to tell you the truth, i am uncertain what format the camera uses, but, when i downloaded the few video's i took, my computer "processed" them to video player.

I've never tried it, but I'm sur you could using the right software. The file output is .avi. Which is a movie file. Maybe if you could open the file in something like movie maker. I'll try it and let you know how it works.

My above answer said "wav" format but I can't remember for sure. I have played 720p MP4 format both on USB and on a DVD-R.

By default it records in MTS. You probably can convert mts to any other format using a video converter.
