I understand it would be a severe threat to their prosumer models to allow hd6's and 7's to "play well with the other children...." namely adobe premiere and final cut pro. So they, in effect, disabled their editing capabilities and really only allow people to easily play their footage on hd televisions or on the small screen the cameras come with. Thanks jvc. You gotta know that this user will opt for one of your competators when i do make the switch to professional gear. (i hate to sound cynical, and believe me - i know it is possible to edit .tod files after conversion. But, let's face it - why should we have to go through all that b.s.?)
    amen brother

    I have the JVC GZ-HD7U camera and I film my daughters soccer games. I need to connect an external monitor to it (through the HDMI or ?) and I'm having the hardest time finding one that will work with it. The only way right now is to have a TV with HDMI input. The problem with that is having AC power. Can anyone help with this issue?

    Wanted to share one solution. Usually I play content from JVC camcoder on my WDTV GEN 1 - they are playable on it (when renamed to .mpg) but not very convenient because there are a lot of them. To correctly convert TOD files (without reencoding) to single mpeg format file you can:
    download ffmpeg (use google) and then create .bat file with this content, put in the folder with TOD files and run it:
    Code:
    @echo off
    set myvar=
    for /f %%i in ('dir /b /O:D *.TOD') DO call :concat %%i
    set myvar=%myvar:~0,-1%
    echo.%myvar%
    set myvar=%myvar:;=^|%
    rem ffmpeg.exe -i "concat:%myvar%" -f mpeg -acodec copy -vcodec copy test.mpeg
    ffmpeg -i "concat:%myvar%" -vcodec copy -f mpeg2video ES_Video.m2v -acodec copy -f mp2 ES_Audio.mp2 
    ffmpeg -fflags +genpts -i ES_Video.m2v -i ES_Audio.mp2 -vcodec copy -acodec copy -f vob output.mpg
    del ES_Video.m2v /Q
    del ES_Audio.mp2 /Q
    
    goto :eof
    
    :concat
    set myvar=%myvar%%1;
    goto :eof
    After convertion you will get a single file output.mpg that you can correctly play, fast forward, rewind etc on your WDTV or other player.

  6. Hi there, anyone still working with the HD7 ?
    I could share a little tool for windows i am writing which uses vlc to remux / convert .tod files into mpeg2 ts files.
    it can also merge splitted tod files into one file without timecode gaps if the recording was continous.
    all for free
    vlc not included... just point to the installed vlc.exe.

    For now the tool is in german but i could make an english version if anyone is still interested...
    just let me know...

    cheers
