O.k., so I'm able to record movies and BT them to my Mac (in this case, a G4 running OS 10.2.6); the format is MQV format - which supposedly is a "cousin" to MPEG 4, which Quicktime 6 is able to handle -- but these movie files refuse to open in Quicktime.

Any Mac users using a conversion program or some such that I should be aware of?...

TIA

Use a program called "VLC" (Google for it) to play these movies.

HI, i had the same issue, you need to rename the transfered files with .mov make sure you transfer the movies froom the root folder on your clie. All will be well.

I'm kinda new to this stuff, but I figured this one out. I email the .MQV to myself, rename it whatever.MOV then open it up with Quicktime 6. It works great. Good luck!

I was really surprised at how easy it really was, and also wonder why they wouldn't just make them MOV files to begin with.
