Lowest Price Creative Labs Vado HD 720p Pocket Video Camcorder with 8 GB Video Storage and 2x Digital Zoom (Black)

I just hate the fact this thing records in .avi - simply ruins the happy recording experience .... because its using the avi as a wrapper rather than mp4 guess what... the PS3 will NOT play the files directly. LAME!

Also , imovie will not work , you must recode to mov , to playback in QT you need perian which is fine but again no imovie editing makes it cumbersome.... so if you are not editing then all is well....

Here is another trick I tried... I used Toast 10 to convert my vado file to a avchd playable blu ray THEN copied that file back to the ps3 and then it would play natively on the ps3... again these extra steps make this camera weak.... they really need to make it MP4 so it will playback in other devices --- the whole world does not revolve around windows media player.....

I'll be waiting for the Sony webbie or Flip HD rev b ...... Oh well , the device itself is super easy to use but the file your left with is hard to deal with for anything else but playback.... I hope the sony webbie will record in straight mp4 or mts (avchd) with total ps3 native playback so you can keep the files on the hd with zero conversion.

THINK Creative before you leap! MP4 and rest of the world playability is important !Get more detail about Creative Labs Vado HD 720p Pocket Video Camcorder with 8 GB Video Storage and 2x Digital Zoom (Black).
