Re: [Avid-L2] Re: OT: Flip Video Cameras

These are all nice suggestions guys - but the problem isn't that we
can't do the file conversion. The problem is that the USB port on the
camera is dead and we can't get the files off of it.

We finally purchased an HDMI cable, ran the output onto an LCD TV and
shot it. Strictly stone age, but the client was desperate to get the
footage off.
