hi, I don`t know where to put this thread, I think that this is the best one place for do it.

I have bought a few week ago a digital camera, a BENQ DC3410,it can record video with audio, I have tried to make a video in the pc using the same parameters but I can`t find the way to make it playable on the camera.i can play audio files in wav format that I convert in the pc, but the video have something that I haven`t find.
it use mjpeg format for the video at 320x240 resolution. i have asked BENQ for some info on it, but they say that the camera write some header that the pc don`t. I think, if a camera can do it, why my pc can`t, its a lot more powerful an have so manu options, there`s have to be a way to do it. if someone knows how I can try to find that way please let me know, if someone have do it this with some other camera, maybe the steps are similar.

thanks. i hope it help anyone too.

I would assume it's probably a proprietary format. Even if it has an install disc so your computer can play back video the camera creates, that's probably a decoder only.
