Camileo S10 & MAC - compatibility information

Hi to all,
I want to buy this camera but can't find any information about compatibility Camileo S10 with Mac OS X. Somebody worked with this OS?

Hi
I dont see any reasons why you could not use this camcorder in connection with the MAC.
The SD card where all the files (movies and pictures) are stored can be removed and you can use it in external card reader which is connected to MAC.

Where Can I buy another battery for the Camileo S10?

Hi.
I would like to know if are there some compatibility batteries for our Camileo S10.
Thanks.

Hi!
Have you contacted an authorized service provider? They can order all original Toshiba parts and maybe for the camcorders too. Just ask for this. :)
And maybe you can find on eBay some batteries for the Camileo camera. Check this!
Bye

Camileo S10 saves recording in AVI format

Hi from Spain,
I've just received my Camileo S10 bought from an online reseller.
I choose the S10 because all over the web, people says that it records .MOV files which is perfect for me as I'm willing to edit the recordings on my Mac using iMovie.
First test : I'm recording a few clips on both internet memory and SD card and watch them on my TV. Great quality, nothing to say so far.
I then connect the S10 to my Mac using USB cable and discover that all the files are .AVI and not .MOV as everyone seems to have.
It plays fine with VLC, but iMovie doesn't recognize any of these files.
I don't want to have to convert AVI to MOV as this is a gift for my wife and she wants something straightforward.
Is there any option or firmware available to change this ?
This is very weird... Reading all forums and comments on the net, it seems everyone is looking for a way to save in anything but .MOV
I need an answer to know if I'm sending back the S10 or not...
Thanks for your help.

Hi mate
Are you sure its a .avi format???
I downloaded the user manual for this camcorder S10 and the page 42 says that the camcorder support these file formats:
Picture: JPG
*Movie: MOV*
It seems the MOV format is supported
Maybe you should check all the settings!!

Camileo S10 - Arcsoft doesn't recognize any files on SD card & internal memory

I have just bought a Camileo s10 camcoder.
So far i was satisfied with the product till i connected it to my pc (vista fully compatible with recommendations).
I installed the Arcsoft software but i never got any file imported because *the program recognised both sd and internal memory as empty*(i could play the files in the camera's player as well as from my pc's card reader ).
I used other similar suites with no luck.I then tried to format the sd hc 8gb card and restore my files but unluckily i noticed *the video/foto files were not recognised, at that time, even from the camera* .
Another serious concern is that i had an hd(720p) .mov file from a trailer in my memory card and the camera could not see it (+i wanted to use the camcoder as a high def player connected to my sony full hd tv+).
I have searched for answers almost anywhere but so far i got no response

Actually thanks for the advice.I tried those you mentioned and i finally(partially at least) found out that in the sd card and internal memory folders *there where 2 folders* with the same name(100MEDIA.. something)
One was recognised as an application and the other as a folder.The folder was a hidden file permanently so i supposed this was the reason so my first concern is answered.I found it really weard though!
I made the format inside the camera.You mentioned a higher class card.Would this improve something specifically?I observed that i have class 4 SD hc.
*My main worry now is to recognise the recording format of this camera so i can convert other video formats to it.And so far nobody seems to know as everybody is interested in editing recorded videos and not in reproducing.
Thank you for your answer

How to disassemble the Camileo S10?

I would like to hack the S10 to solve 2 problems:
1) Put a wide angle adaptor
Actually it is almost impossible, but removing the plastic part in front of objective allow to access to cylindrical part of it and fix a wide angle adaptor
2)I need to fit the S10 on a RC model to keeping the camera in horizontal position instead of vertical.
I successfully start to disassemble the camera removing the plastic black middle where the battery is located.
I stop because I have no ideas how to unmount the video display
Anyone have a link to Toshiba Service manual of the Camileo S10 or have an idea how to dissasemble it ?

Hi
I think disassembling a Camileo is not so easy and should only be done from an expert.
If something is wrong with your camera you should go to the nearest authorized service provider. The technicians can disassemble it for you and they have such service manuals I think.

Camileo S10 - 16/9 recording at FULL HD

I have the same problem with friend *rodarko* ([m-169634] ). I have seen his thread, but nobody since now have found a solution. I will try to desribe my exact problem.
When I record at 16:9 full HD everything seems ok. But when I try to play it on my computer with Arcsoft player, some files are played 16:9 and some others are played 4:3.
I have made a lot of tryies but the only thing that I have found out is that usually the files that works on 16:9 format, are not the first 5 that I have record. So If I record 4 or 5 or 6 (I do not know why) files, then the next files can be played on 16:9.
This does not hapens all the times. My camera is Camileo S10 and my card is Kingston 8GB HC (SD6/8GB).
I wanter why TOSHIBA didn't found any solution, and ofcourse I wanter why they have put the following message (This thread is locked - replies are not allowed.)on the same answer of user rodarko!
Any way please if you know anything give me an answer. Thank you

I had similar problem ..... all videos shot in full HD (on my Camileo P30) but some of them on windws were reported as they were shot in 1440x1080.(4:3) and some as 1920x1080
To solve that you must know how windows system works.
By doubleclicking an AVI (or opening it by an editing software or player) background process will try to decode such video. Such process is not part of editing software or player, it is part of windows.
For proper decoding such process will take some infos from AVI file and will try to load apropriate codec for proper interpretation of file stream. When codec is found it will be loaded and used to decode file stream into video and audio streams and those streams then will be returned to host application (editor or player).
Today, on average computer you can find tons of codecs. On my own ther is over 130 for different file formats.
You also should know that some codecs avaliable are not finished completly or doesn't support all possible variations of file formats. (new header sections etc)
To be capable to chose right codec from the bunch windows use some kind of flag called MERIT which is associated to each codec. So codecs with MERIT_VALUE='DO NOT USE' will never be used while codecs with MERIT_VALUE='Prefered' or 'above prefered' will mostly like used.
The key point of problem from topic and all other problems related to corrupted video or video doesn't load in editor (or player) is MERIT number of probably incomplete (or old) codec.
If MERIT of such codec is high then other (maybe newer) codes with MERIT set to normal will never get chance to load. To fix that you have several options. One could be to uninstall old or problematic codec. It is easy if codec came as single unfortunately most of codecs come in packs. Removing complete pack is not solution since other codec could be good and are used for other types of videos.
The best way is to manually change MERIT value for problematic codec to value 'DO NOT USE'.
To do that easy you'll need simple GRAPH STUDIO. It is small application which comes with KLite codec pack. (maybe it is available as standalone too or with other codec packs too).
When you start it just drag'n drop an AVI file into it and it will automatically build the graph for it. Graph is network of nodes where each node represent one of used codec for interpretation of used file.
Remember, graph auto-created here will be exact the same as windows creates in background when some editor or player opens file.
Usually, AVI file has FILE SOURCE node connected to AVI_SPLITTER node which separate audio and video streams from source file. It is then connected to some video decompressor and audio decompressor which are REAL CODECS. Play button alows to test the graph. If video plays fine then everything is ok but if something is corrupted or video is not in right aspect then you have to do following:
1. To try ffdshow codec you'll have to select and delete your video codec from the graph
2. Manually insert ffdshow video decoder node (Graph->Insert filter->ffdshow video decoder)
3. connect it in the graph as your previous deleted node was connected (stream0 from AVIsplitter to IN of ffdshow node and OUT from ffdshow node to IN of your video renderer)
4. test such graph by playing it
This is just a test and will not reflect any changes in windows. If now you get your video properly works you'll have to change the MERIT of codec you are replaced by ffdshow.
To do that:
1. Close graph editor
2. Reopen it and again drag'n drop your AVI file into it
3. Remember the name of node you want to replace with ffdshow
4. Find it in the list of all filters installed on the system (click Graph->Insert filter and find it in the list of all filters then just select it and click button CHANGE MERIT and chose DO_NOT_USE)
5. Also in the same list find ffdshow video decoder, select it and turn on check box FAVORITE FILTER (you may also want to increase it's merrit)
Now close the graph editor. Open it agin and drag'n drop same AVI file. If auto-created graph now contains ffdshow video decoder, everything is fine.
If you get some other codec (it is possible if you had installed let say 4 codecs for H264 video.... you disable only one, 3 are still available and some of these could have larger MERIT value than ffdshow. Don't worry, just test graph with such codec. It is possible to work fine. If not disable it on the same way you did with previouse.)
Graph Studio has many interesting options you can play it like performance testing, experiment with your own graphs making outputs goes to disk instead of screen etc. You can also sve your graphs and use it ie. for conversion from one format to another etc.
I hope this help.
At the end sorry for my English, it is not my mother tongue language.

Re: Camileo S10 - very slow when SD card is in.

My Camileo S10 was working fine for months with my 8GB ScanDisk Ultra II memory card.
Now, when I start the camera it is very slow to start and to operate (a few seconds delay for each operations).
When I remove the SD card and trun on the camera, it works fine.
Is it a known problem?
Any idea for me?
thanks.

Hi
For me it looks like a problem with the inserted SD card.
I think you should try to format the CD card and should check it again.
If this will not help and if you will not notice any performance improvement then you should replace the SD card and should try with a new one.

Camileo S10 Camera does not remember the image-stabilizer setting

Hello Forum reader,
Is it normal that my Camileo S10 Camera does not remember the image-stabilizer setting?
I mostly use the 720px setting and stablilizer on, but after the camera is turned off the stabilizer is off again.
Greetzz.. Ben

Hi
This might be possible.
I remember that the focus does not work if the stabilization has been enabled
So maybe its an intention of the manufacturer that the stabilizer would be disabled again.

Try to publish ical - error "your .Mac account information is not correct"

I try to publish a calendar from my home computer so that I can see it on my work laptop (both Macs); and I get an error "Your .Mac account configuration is not correct. Calendar could not be published. Your .Mac account information is not correct. You cannot publish to .Mac until you have configured your .Mac account." Its setup and configured. Any ideas?

I had the same thing and did the following two things which got it to publish. Not sure which one fixed it but give it a go.
1. Open your .mac pane in system preferences. Sign out and sign back in.
2. Change the name of the calendar you're trying to publish.
Good luck!

Hand Held GPS Mac Compatibility?

Does anyone know if there is a hand held GPS unit, suitable for hiking, geocaching, that is completely, totally right-out-the-box compatible with

Camileo S10 - how to change the aspect ratio to 16:9

Does anyone know how to change the aspect ratio when making movies with the arcsoft software included with the S10!!!!!
Won't let me select 16:9 only 4:3!!!
Not sure why as when you play the recording back directly through the telly it does it in 16:9 so I know it's being recorded in the right ratio!!

You cannot change the aspect ratio because you record at full hd 1080. The S10 records in format 1440/1080 at full hd, wich means 4/3. The S10 is not capable to record in full hd at 1920/1080 (this is 16/9 full hd). It is simple:
Camileo S10 record 1440 pixels on horizontal and 1080 pixels on vertical. The aspect ratio is 4/3.
Answer for your question: if you want to see in 16/9 format use HD2 (720p) for recording.
Bye.

Problem charging Camileo S10

Hi all Toshiba users!!
I've just bought a Camileo S10 camera, and it looks apretty nice, small and light. But it doesn't seem to charge the battery, neither power on. Here's how I've proceeded:
1) I removed the insulant from the battery, and put it again, closing the case.
2) I plugged it in with its own charger, which uses the USB connector.
3) Circle LED around the "Record" button lights on (but doesnt blink as stated in manual).
4) When 5 minutes pass, the LED powers off and never lights on again.
Is this normal behaviour? Because when I try to power on the camera, it just does nothing. I tried flipping the LCD screen and also tried with power button, with USB charger disconnected. Camera doesnt react at all. When I power on with charger connected it works correctly.
Thanks for your help!

I've exactly the same charging problem with my new S10 camcorder.
I've removed the insulating film from the battery, but when I insert it again in the S10 and I plug the charger, the LED light doesn't blink: it just lights on (in red) for a few minutes and then simply lights OFF without ever charging.
Even with the charger connected, i couldn't power on the camera.
How do you solved that problem?
Did you find a solution, or you just asked your local dealer to exchange a supposedly damaged item?
Please, let me know how you did handle that.
Thanks.

Camileo S10 - to record a movie without flipping screen?

I would like to know if it is possible to record a movie with Toshiba Camileo S10 without flipping screen?

To be honest I dont know what you mean.
Can you please explain this?
Have you checked the user manual? I dont know if the user manual contains the answer of your questions but its always useful to look in the user manual. If you dont have it you can download it on the Toshiba website:

Mp3 players - mac compatability ? (NOT itunes compatability )

hi
i want to buy a cheap mp3 player ...
btw i dont use itunes music store so i dont need any compatability
with itunes buttons and all that.
i want to use it for my audio book collection.
I'm a bit confused about the mp3 player- mac compatability debate.
Seems like when alot of people say mp3 players are bot compatable with macs - what they mean is not compatable with itunes music store downloads.
Am i correct in thinking that all mp3 players can be mounted as external drives and i could drag n drop folders of mp3s - and that this is a universal rule of thumb ?
If this is so, does it not mean that all mp3 players are effectivly compatable with macs ? If it doesnt , then why ?
Thanks for helping me work this out

I think, as you said, it is that they have not written any software to specifically work with the Mac. Also, even if they think it should work with a Mac, in the case of a Mass Storage Device, if they haven't specifically tested their products on the Mac, they are not going to claim any compatibility to avoid angry customers if it turns out to not work as smooth as they assumed.
I use a flash drive, 512MB Sandisk model, and previous used a 128MB Lexar version. In both cases I never really had any trouble using these in Mac and Windows systems and in fact have used the same flash drive in Win 2000, Win ME, Win XP, Mac OS X, and Mac 9.2.2 systems and it works on all of them. It shows up as a removable drive and you can drag and drop to or from the flash drive just like any other drive on the system.
Because I want the flash drive to work on both Windows and Mac systems, I don't format with a Mac format but always use DOS format (as it is called under Mac OS). If formatting on a Windows system, be sure to use Fat32 format rather than NTFS. Mac OS X.3 can read NTFS format, but not write to it. I think Tiger might be able to write to it now, but Fat32 is pretty universal and will work on all the above mentioned operating systems.
My guess is that Sony will work just fine on your Mac.
