You're lucky you got software haha, I got camera, a USB lead and a set of chinese instructions.


Have noticed the video I have is 720x480 as opposed to 640x480 advertised.

[Nutter_John]

720 is hd format

That would explain your huge file sizes then mate. Maybe there is a way to change that setting to a smaller format ?

[damien]

I've managed to set the time on it, eventually.

Hi guys,

Just to confirm, 720 x 480 is not HD, it's D1 resolution in NTSC (ie. American DVD resolution).

720P (the lowest form of HD) is 1280 x 720 resolution. The figure in HD specifies the number of vertical lines (ie. top to bottom).

Hope this helps.

Cheers foxdie, but looks like I've bought the wrong one, either that or get used to converting the big files down.

Actually, just looked at the one I ordered and that also says 720x480

Piece of cake mate, I'd never used Movie Maker before todat and took me all of 10 minutes.

What is it with people not willing to post to Germany from eBay? Will have to get them posted to the UK then posted to me from there!
I'm considering buying a handful of them as they are the sort of things the guys here would love!

Hmm, well driving Movie Maker is easy enough but I have been having a problem where whenever I publish the movie I get the image squeezed in half and a big green bar at the bottom. After much faffing around, I eventually Googled the problem and found it's a problem with the native MPEG4 decoder in Vista. To fix the problem you have to change the decoder settings in xvid so that it uses the 'compatibility renderer' so hopefully it will now work. Fingers crossed ...

[White Lightning]

OK, here is my first effort

I probably compressed this a little too much in the end as by the time it got the YouTube it lost a lot of the quality. The next one I do will by better quality

Anyway, I hope you like Iron Maiden
