Are there good ways to export video? Like to a USB drive, or to another computer over LAN? How can you share footage with law enforcement or others?

I've never personally done it myself. I do know it's covered on the disc that has the manual that comes with the DVR. I believe the USB slot is for thumb drive download.

how did work out? I am travelling and I have been trying to download video but with no luck on my laptop(mac G4). I tried the 4 pin to the usb, 4 pin to the 6 Firewire, and a couple other connectors.

Yes you can. You can review video by date and time for any camera and when you find the one you want you can export it to the harddrive or any other device that you have attached to the computer

Are you asking how to download the video even though it is in segments? If so, I would say, rather than let the computer do the automatic download, try and grab all the individual video clips and put them in a place where you can view them. The video will only record 10 minute segments... if you have a clip longer than 10 minutes, it will automatically be broken into pieces. You will need to use something like Windows Movie Maker to stitch the clips together back into a single long video. Thanks! Good luck!

You can. I have only done it once. I use the video on the document camera and saved it to my computer. The video turned out really well, and the kids enjoyed it.

I thing you can use USB flash drive ,and depend on flash drive space. If you have good network connection ,I thing you can record whole game without any problem, dependent on Battery ,get a long lasting battery.

Thomas, I love the camera!!! It's extremely easy to transfer the videos to your PC to edit. I have found that even though the software initially permits "frame to frame" editing, it actually edits in segments on the PC. When transferring to "YouTube" I have lost the last segment, yet, I'm a novice at this. It is possible to edit on the camera directly which I have not yet tried. The camera is new to me and I wasn't yet confident enough that I may loose my videos while editing on the camera. The camera is amazing for far distance shooting, the main reason for my purchase. Hope this has been of help. cj

Try Dvinfo.net or Camcorderuser.net. There is a guy very experienced with Pinnacle that frequents both of those sites. Remember these sites or viewed by thousands of people but in most cases only a handful of people are regulars at helping people. Also, take the time to read their extensive thread archive as most answers are already there.i

I've been a video editor for the past 30 years. These days, I tend to stick with G-Tech for my drives. But realize that EVERY drive will fail one day. It's not a matter of if, but when. So if you don't have two separate copies (preferably in different locations), it's not really backed up. :)

Just be careful of the laws in your state if you ever intend to bring the video to law enforcement. Most states seem to require two party consent and that includes criminals. Turn audio off in the settings if you are not sure of your state's laws.

You would use a FireWire cable and import the video using video editing software.

Hi Jerryman,Yep! You can export any lenghth needed. You will load JPlayer to play and view your recordings. Then chose from there what you want to export. - By the way, my dash cam is over a year old and is still kicking! My only warning is direct sunlight when parked all day like me in Arizona. The camera will stop working. Let it cool off replug. I now use a small white wash cloth, dry of course, to drape over it when I park.

I suppose you can transfer your video because of the USB connection like you would any other device. It may take a while to download though but I don't personally post anything to YouTube.

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.

Can the video feed from SmartCam be recorded by some other recording device on the LAN, using less compression and therefore better clarity? I don't need Web access but want better image.

do you know any good avi to mpeg converters or something because the ones that i tried will either convert part of the file, or leave its logo in the center; and of course the zen converter doesnt work at all for me. thanks
