Where did you get the firmware, I've been looking all over for it? I'm having an issue where the device starts, goes into wanting me to set the clock for a second then shutting off. I need a way to reset it or upgrade the firmware to bring it back to factory settings. Something got glitched in the software.

I have a question how does the picture look if you watch it on your tv? I want to buy one but I have been reading reviews and on the older models people were saying picture when seen on a tv looks grainy and boxy. How is this one?

I adore it. For somebody that just requires an easy thing, I suspect this is great. I only wish it had some other color selections though. Best camcorder stores in usa

Got this camcorder and love the ease of use for filming videos. However when
I try to upload them to my computer and play them, I am able to see the tags for teh video files but when I click play it is just a black box. Does anyone know how I can remedy this. i believe I have to install a special code program and have tried to do that but being computer inept, i can't seem to get it to work after installation. Are there specific setting that i need to change?

Thanks,

Chris

Oh also another thing. I have downloaded perain and no picture is showing on quicktime. Do I need to change any settings at all like in quicktime or perain? I cant think of anything else to do.

So if I download ffmpegx it will make it so I can use iMovie?

iMovie is one of the most picky softwares. You can use ffmpegx above to convert the video pretty easy but its a few steps.

Alright its still not showing the video. It does show a picture of the video on the file, but it doesn't show any video, just sound.

It's a Quicktime plugin. Just have to install it. Then Quicktime will play the videos. Not much to it.

Alright, so what do I need to do to get the pictures to show up on my mac? I downloaded that program and Im not sure what to do next.

you need flip4mac to get sound. I though you had it if you got sound before. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/p...

No what would that have to do with anything? Its the camera that is in the picture at the very top of this page.

Does this camera have a standard tripod mount?

Okay so I downloaded perian, but is there some sort of setting I have to change to make the video appear with the sound? I clicked on it, but there wasnt much you could do with it.

You can install Perian and it will make it work. The audio is a Microsoft codec so Flip4Mac makes that part work, but the h264 video codec is encoded a little odd so Mac's decoder doesn't like, but Perian will fix Quicktime so that it can. http://www.perian.org/

Is anyone having problems updating the firmware on the 300ahd? I keeps telling me that the package is corrupt and I need to download another version.

I've got the 200...good except for the codec issue. Can't play videos in Windows Media Player..audio probs there...audio sped up, and everyone sounds like alvin and the chipmunks. I can play them in VLC, or just use a converter prog and convert them to another format. Not sure that it's worth it to update to the 300, other than the screen size.
still pondering.....thanks for the review!!!
