I bought a new handicam with projection(Sony DCR PJ5e). It records in memory card in MPEG2 format and able to play . But when I try to play clips with same format by using memory card, the camcoder does not recognize the clips. Can any one suggest a solution. Such clips are able to see in the camcoder's LCD pannel by using external player and AV cord

It is the wrong capacity SD card.
Absolute maximum capacity is 32Gb

Question edited to add the make and fix typos.

I wondered if there was a Mute feature for the microphone, but I don't see it in the manual. There is however a warning that you can't get sound from a clip that was recorded with 4 channel sound. It sounds like you may just have a faulty microphone.

I have the same problem. I just bought a sony handyman and tried to play my old tapes and nothing, not even sound. But I just recorded something using an old tape and it records and I can play that back. I'm thinking maybe over time, somehow all the data on there got erased. Which is really a bummer.

Possible there are errrors in the memory. transfer the recorded files and then format the drive. If not connect to the PC after downloading the software and check for errors. If not there are errors in the drive.

This is usually caused by a defective CCD image sensor and can be repaired fairly inexpensively. However, it's not a user serviceable problem and will need to be repaired qualified service technician.

It seems that your handycam does not support the memeory card u put in.

I would say that formating the external memory would sort out the problem this will erase all data and be free of bad data also cheack you can rigth to the disc is it locked

Movies shot DV Camcorder forms mpg files when down loaded in computor and can not be converted to a CD. Problmes comes in conversion of mpg files to AVI, WMV, AVSEQ or MPEG2 etc.

Let's try to bottomline this. If you want said DVD to play in most players, you'll be encoding the video according to standards. The current DVD is MPEG2. At the current time, most people just have DV camcorders so you don't see the generational loss as you move the video from DV to DVD. At least I don't.
