The MPEG-2s captured from the camcorder by Ulead Video Studio 10 look to average roughly 225 MB per minute. So I'd estimate that a full hour would be 13-15 GB. This is straight from the camcorder without additional compression, I believe.

Video playback is a bit hit and miss. Some play, some freeze the machine. I am trying to get the spec for compatible formats for .avi and .mp4 from Coby and waiting for a reply. The standard mini-USB plug cable allows you to manage and transfer files between the frame and a computer. The cards in the DP-102 will show as external drives on the PC.

Hi , thats a useful and efficient dvr for recording two channels only. its not an editing machine. its small, compact and possible to be hidden in walls and cabinets. it has efficient power consumption and fast recording of two channels on an SD card (not supplied with the system) . so to answer your question, you can not do editing or video management from the DVR itself. straight forward - connect and record.

Recording is done via a micro USB card. It comes with an 8 GB card but I added the 16 GB card. I have had problems with recording. It does not seem to want to really record over previously recorded files. Sometimes It will stop recording and I will have to turn off the monitor and then on again to get it to record.

I'm at work so I'm not exactly sure what the name of the editing software is, but it does come with editing software that worked wonderfully. I read some of the reviews and people said they used other software. I followed their advice, but in the end, the software that comes with it allowed me to record around 30 hours of footage that I wanted to save from my DVR before a move. I HIGHLY recommend!!

Not sure I understand the question. I have no issues with the video it records. The files are AVI type files and all I do is copy them from the SD card to the computer, and play them using Windows Media Player. Have not had to convert the files to any other type of video file type.

The recording go to the hard drive in a compressed format H.264. The files can build up unless you maintain the storage. The cameras also take snapshots, these are stored as JPEG, like anyother digital camera. These too can add up unles you elete the unwanted ones, my suggestion is to use Blue Iris, you can set all the paremeters to how much it records and where and how it stores it..

Hello! If you are talking about the 'loop recording' setting, from the menu, I can help you. The options I have when choosing 'loop recording' are off, 1 minute, 2 minutes and 3 minutes. I do not have 5 minutes displayed there. If you choose off, the camera will record a video file until the memory from the micro sd card will be filled, then stop. For the other 3 options, it will record video files of 1, 2, or 3 minutes duration and when the memory is full it automatically erases the oldest video file on the memory card, so you don't have to erase anything manually in order to be able to record more, once the memory is full. I hope this was helpful. Hori. Hello! If you are talking about the 'loop recording' setting, from the menu, I can help you.

You have to purchase a separate SDHC memory card to insert into the device in order to record. Once footage is recorded, you then insert the same card into your computer to import the files created.

When you save a clip it creates an executable file. It does not let you choose an specific type of file of your choice.You can choose what channels to save on your file.

Delete the files when you view them after plugging into your laptop/desktop. If you reach saturation, I figure it stops recording. Not sure.

This camera makes mp4 videos. A format that will cause you no problems with any system. The files are on the SD card in the DCIM folder under 100Media. And you just drag them to your desired folder on your computer. Super simple. Newer camcorders record in "avchd", which is fine if you run windows, but Macs still make you jump through hoops in order to import the footage. The Files are in the Folder Private. Then the Folder AVCHD. Then the folder BDMV. The the folder Stream. If you are running windows you can just drag the footage from the Stream folder to your desired folder. But if you are using a MAC you need to drag the entire BDMV folder over. But the Toshiba Camileo X200 records mp4's. This camera makes mp4 videos.

Actually, I have a laptop that reads an SD card. It is easy to just plug the card into my laptop and it plays the video. I have mine set to record when movement is detected. That setting is under the plate on the back. It overwrites the oldest recording when it needs to have more space. I just watch it when I suspect foul play. It worked right out of the box for me. Clay

In a round about way. Before your recording was captured on tape. If you camcorder uses a SD Card it is recorded to it for replay in the camcorder or you can transfer to a computer or TV or any device which will allow you to view it using an SD card.

They should be here, but I don't see this specific model. Maybe you can contact JVC support to ask them. This camcorder saves files into a format that was foreign to me. But, after I downloaded them to my PC, I changed the dot + 3 letters (format) to something different, and then I was able to manipulate them with my own software -- I think I changed them to .mov. I did not like the software that comes with this camcorder at all. When the new year started, I couldn't find a way to display files from the previous year -- very strange and scary! Good thing I back up all of my files. Good luck, but BTW, there are many more and better camcorders out there, even my iPad videos shoot at higher resolution and look better.

It records to DV tapes. But their are video USB cards that you can use to capture the video to your computer.
