Sanyo Xacti VPC DMX-C5 Video Camera

Jun 5, 2005 9:27PM PDT

Just received camera/digital movie camera, the movies come out as MPEG-4, they are very good but Windows Media player V10 does not play them (using Windows XPS2), so far the only player is Qtime, any suggestions on conversion, editing programs to .avi,wmv, asf or mpeg that will play on Windows media player also need to re-compress
thanks for the time and help

Do you recommend the camera? How does it perform in low light?
