Is it possible to export/save recorded video for archiving? The files with extension .h260 won't open with any media player.

My geeyacam files are AVI video clip files. They open with MS Media Player. I am not aware of the file type specified in this question.

I haven't tried that yet, but will ask my husband to do it tonight if he has a wall adaptor and then let you know. It won't play MP4's though, only MP3.

Hi. There are various MP4 file formats. If our unit does not read or recognize the file you would like to play, we recommend converting or downloading file as a AVI, DVIX or M4V.

You can record, but you cannot watch films on it. Also, the browser doesn't actually allow you to browse the internet... It only lets you browse the files that you have on the device.

If you have Windows 7, the Windows Media Player should play them. If you have an older version of Windows, you'll probably need to convert them, or you can upload them to YouTube (can leave them set to Private or Unlisted if you don't want the world to see them) and let YouTube convert them for you (though I've found that it doesn't do a perfect job of rendering them for you, they seem to be a little choppier when uploaded straight from AVCHD format vs. rendering them to .wmv first). To convert/render them yourself, a good program is Sony's Vegas Studio HD. About $90, but at that it's a lot cheaper than something like Adobe Premier and it does a good job of handling HD video.

Your music player probably only recognizes audio-only formats like MP3. So you can't just copy video files over and have it read them. But you can extract the audio portion and save it on the sd card, and then your player should be able to handle it. There are a bunch of ways to do this - probably the simplest is to use a third-party app like Video Converter for Mac. But you can do it directly with something like iMovie - import the video, then export only the sound portion to another file.

Andy,I used some SW called Sonic to format a DVR+R disc and copied/burned a few Xvid (.avi) files to it. But the 5960 was not able to read/load the files. What went wrong? How did you burn files to DVD+R disc?Thanks,Vicne

This worked for me. Can you tell me what file types I should load if I want to play my own videos? Thanks!

The files are mp4 AVC (H.264) so you should be able to edit with almost any software like iMovie or QuickTime directly without converting to an intermediate format. I tested with both and it's just drag and drop.

I had difficulty playing MP4 files on my computer but I was able to convert them (with no loss of information) to MOV files, which play without a problem using SUPER. Only problem is that it took overnight to convert the files! I'm surprised that for a device that is supposed to be easy to use, it was so difficult to see the files.

What I did was converted anything I wanted to watch to avi. Thru a program called format factory. N make sure ur usb flash drive is no bigger than 4GB. Or else it won't work.

You wont see any videos on the sd card. Just double click on the video player to open it and you will see a list of all the videos. Then you can save any directly to your pc.

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.

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

No limit on the screen capture as I have capture entire films for later conversion to mp4 and .wav format. However, I don't see that codec format H264... I know it has various presets .avi, .mov., .mp4, .wav, and many others...I sometimes export to WAV and import into Premiere for serious video editing.

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.

I wish I could help you but neither the book or the box gives you a maximum on storage. It just says you have to use an external USB drive. I am using an HP simple save that I think is 500 G and it works for me but I just record TV shows.
