I can't say I'm a fan of the included software. I use handbrake with the following settings:1. Select the "iPhone & iPod Touch" preset.2. Set output format to "MP4 file"3. Set Video\Video codec to "H.264(x264)"4. Set Video\Quality to "Average bitrate(kbps): 1500"5. Set Advanced\B-Frames to "0"6. Disable Advanced\CABAC Entropy Coding7. Set Advanced\Motion Estimation Method to "Uneven Multi_Hexagon"8. In "Picture Settings", select a maximum width of 720 and height of 480 and set Anamorphic to "None"Looks great (for a Pico).

May I suggest looking at comparative videos on YOUTUBE and making sure that you click on the HD option. I find the YOUTUBE quality to be better than Vimeo. Please post your reactions then.Awaiing the CNET comparative review...

Thanks for the response. I'm not really interested in the 24p aesthetic. I am interested in taking video of quarter midget race cars racing. I have a HV10 now that has two problems (as I see it). One is that it's HD format is 1080i and the other is that the HD video is compressed to the same bit rate as SD video. It looks like the native 24p mode of the HV40 could solve one of these problems. It boggles my mind that so few camcorders offer progressive recording. Nearly all the still cameras that take video do it in progressive format.

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 hear a hammering sound when I record video as well...that's a real drag because the video itself looks great. What have people done about this?

I never use the format MP4. I just use to play the BD and standard DVD. I wish I could help you more.

MP4 video format, I had to use handbrake. I ended up returning this product, I was not happy with the app that runs it. I upgrade to the Areo Patriot, much better product.

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

7.0 is Exynos.Exynos are very good at decoding, so you don't need to change file in to like .mp4

I have a JVC mg555, and I just changed a vid file ext to .mpg.WMM imports it, but is not reading the video part only audio. Weird. I am still working on it.

All I can say is that I have been able to play .mp4 720p files without any problem. I don't know what other formats will work.

Thank you very much for the tip. I have a question though. Vimeo allows to e-mail up to 500Mb which is about 1 min of video. Is there a way to e-mail larger files (3 min of video is about 800Mb)? Is there any good way to compress a video and keep a half-decent quality? (I tried Windows movie maker and the result is below poor).Thank you very much

.TS or MPEG 2 file. The files are very large and I found it makes little sense trying convert them to another format to watch on another video player.

I am not tech savvy but it shows that it uses mp 3 format. Hope this helps Kevin

I hate mp4 format...I agree completely; that's the one thing that has kept me from buying any Apple device...I don't want everything in my audio library converted and not be able to play it on other systems. This is proprietary warfare and I'm not bowing down to Apple...
