Playing Movies

To play back a movie, first copy the movie to your computer and then double-click the movie file.

In order to play a movie recorded with this camera on a Windows computer, you need to install DivX Player and the DivX codec (DivX Play Bundle) from the CD-ROM that comes bundled with the camera.

•Installing the DivX codec also enables movie playback with Windows Media Player.

1.Start up your computer, and place the bundled CD-ROM into its CD-ROM drive.

•Normally, this should cause the menu screen to appear automatically. If your computer does not display the menu screen automatically, navigate to the CD-ROM on your computer and then double-click the “MENU.exe” file.

2.On the menu screen, click the tab for the language you want.

3.Click the DivX Play Bundle “Read me” file and read its contents.

•“Read me” files contain important information about installation, including installation conditions and computer system requirements.

4.Click “Install” for DivX Play Bundle.

5.Follow the instructions that appear on your computer screen to install DivX Play Bundle.

•This will install DivX Player, the DivX codec, and DivX Web Player.

NOTE

•During the install operation, you will be asked if you want to install the Google Toolbar and Google Desktop. Install these utilities, if you want.
