I have encountered a problem with the camcorders that have a hard drive. I want to transfer the video to a PC and use MovieMaker to edit. Actually, students will be using MovieMaker, I still use my S4000Pro and Avio. The problem is that the clips are transferred in the AVCHD format. Windows Media Player will play them but you cannot drag them into MovieMaker. When you do they only play audio. I have seen numerous postings on the net about downloading a total CODEC package but that did not work either. Anyone know of a third party conversion program or what files I actually have to download for this to work? Just another reason I use MacroSystem but I have to use the PC in this case.

You can import/record AVCHD to your S-4000Pro for editing.
