Hi all,
I have purchased two of these great gadgets for linking up to bullet cameras, to record in car footage.
This morning I have been able to record a sample of video (in pal, TV VGA, super fine modes), and can play this back on the TV with no problems.
I then take the CF card out of the Neuros (Kingston elite pro 1GB), and transfer it to either of my pcs, both running XP, with latest drivers for the card readers.
It won't recognise I have a card in the drive, in fact the drive itself dissapears from the my computer menu at times. If I eject the card from the reader it then pops up an error message (something 'like delayed write failed').
At a guess I would say the problem lays in on of the following areas?
1. CF card is faulty.
2. Insufficient software to run the video footage - the cd it comes supplied with only appears to be for mobile devices, not pcs, as such I haven't installed anything??
3. User error - I pressed 'format disk' when in the TV menus, has this affected its ability to be read by the pc?
4. Incorrect recording format - does recording in TV 640 x 480 prevent viewing on a pc somehow?! (unlikely i'm sure).
I have at least been able to rule out a fault with the card readers on my pcs, as they are both different brands, and they will open my old digital camera CF cards and display the stored pictures.
Help please, I need to get these working asap!
Thanks, Dave |

Dave, what you describe is exactly what I do, and works fine for me.
Perhaps try formatting the CF card in your PC, and copy some files from the PC to it.
Then insert the CF card in the Recorder, and use the menus in the Recorder to see if the files show up. |

That makes sense, only how do I format the card in my pc? Forgive my ignorance, i've not done this before.
Well, I may have narrowed down my problem - I have tried one of my old CF cards and recorded a short clip to this, and it kind of works! No more crashing in my computer, so it looks like the problem may be a faulty 1GB CF card or becuse of the way I have formatted it?
I say 'kind of' works, as I don't seem to have anything that can play the video correctly. WMP10 won't play it (unknown type), and other players i.e REAL and Quicktime do try, but the video is unwatchable. I even tried to extract the MPEG4 file from the CF card using Adobe Premier, but it only finds the photos on this card, and not the video clip. 
Help! Again!
Thanks, Dave |

Don't mind me, i'll keep adding to the thread 
Ok, problem of playing the videos on my pc was fixed by downloading an update for Quick Time, this now plays it perfectly, and also enables me to import the clip into Adobe Premier.
This just leaves me with the problem of my 1GB CF card - any idea how I would format it? |

I had the same problem, CF card not recognized by the PC. My solution was to re-format the card inside the Recorder-2. I think I had to do it several times before it was finally recognized in the PC. But, it finally worked. I doubt your CF card is faulty. |
