Is it possible to download video files directly from a camera via the USB connection? I have plugged the camera in and can download still pictures OK (JPEG) but the Xoom doesn't see any video files.
I have downloaded both AVI and MOV files to my laptop from my camera and have then transferred them to the Xoom OK but it would be easier to just transfer the video files directly from the camera to the Xoom.
I can play both AVI and MOV formats OK on the Xoom.
Any help would be appreciated.
Running Honeycomb 3.2 at present - wi-fi and 3G version in the UK (can't wait for ICS to arrive!)

MTS joiner for DLNA Sharing: Play AVCHD from PC on HDTV through PS3
DLNA makes it easy for sharing media files within the same network. The DLNA-certified products could connect, find, get and communicate automatically, and you can share, send, play and print files with a few finger clicks.
If you got DLNA-certified camera, the files could be streamed easily. However, there is only limited number of DLNA-certified cameras like Sony DSC-G3 with MotionJPEG as video format, and Canon WFT-E5. What if you have updated your PS3, Windows 7, but have videos on SD700, which is non-DLNA-compliant?
You can also stream AVCHD videos from computer to PS3 via DLNA, and Aunsoft Final Mate will help you share and play AVCHD files with less buffering time. You can link and join several MTS files into one MTS file, and there is no buffering between each clip when playing AVCHD video.
There are only 3 steps for lossless mts/m2ts output with super fast speed, so that you can connect and enjoy AVCHD videos without any gap between clips.
Step 1. Import AVCHD files to Aunsoft Final Mate.
Run Aunsoft Final Mate as the best MTS joiner for DLNA sharing without re-encoding. For files on camera, just connect HDcam to PC via USB cable, and you will face a wizard to import files. For files on PC hard drive or external hard drive disk, go to the Resource tab and click the Add file path icon to locate the folder with the AVCHD files.
Step 2. Join AVCHD files for PlayStation 3 with no conversion.
Click the Create New Movie button, drag and drop the clips from the Resource tab or Camcorder tab to the movie ID. The files will be merged into a single file as one movie. You can also create more movies for different events and social occasions.
Step 3. Lossless MTS output for DLNA.
Click the Export button, and click the OK button to start joining 1080/60p MTS files with 5.1 audio for DLNA streaming.
Just wait for a few seconds, and the movies would be ready. Just put the file to the video folder for sharing, and PS3 could find the videos on the PC via DLNA, and play MTS movies on HDTV without buffering too many times.
Tips:
For playing AVCHD camcorder videos on Android smartphone via DLNA, Aunsoft Final Mate also can convert AVCHD to MP4, so that the content could stream and play on devices like Motorola Droid X, Samsung Galaxy S II, Nokia N and Google Nexus S.
Ok I shot a video clip with my Eris running GSB (CM 7.1 rc) and when I either manually upload the video to youtube or send it from the phone, it scrambles the audio so it isn't usable.
The 3gp video plays fine on the phone and with quicktime on the computer.
Any ideas?
Edit: Here's another user with a different phone and an example of the issue:

Edit 2:
Changed the cam-corder settings to Youtube. Same thing.

This is a situation that just shouldn't exist.
My new Canon S100 shots movies only in .mov format.
My Galaxy Tab 7.0 plus does not recognize .mov format.
When my camera is connected to my tablet, the tablet transfers images just fine, but it refuses to see .mov.
Unfortunately, I need to transfer my files directly from my camera to this tablet. Easily converting .mov on another computer before transferring is not an option.
Any solutions to this problem?
Have you tried any other player from the market like MX Video player ?
P_
Although MX player can play .mov, installing it does not help this tablet recognize .mov from my camera.
question are you doing direct connect via usb or can u eject the sd card and just use your reader
Apple only produces a QuickTime plug-in for Mac OS X and Windows, and hasn't developed a QuickTime application for Android. It's no way to play MOV on Android phones or tablets. If you want to get MOV files onto Android, you need convert MOV(QuickTime) to Android friendly format i.e. MP4 and then get it play.
I'm trying to use MX Player 1.7.32-40 with codec v1.7.32rev1 to play MOV files on a samsung tablet 10.1 (P7510). When using the HW+ setting to play files, the video plays fine but the audio is constantly stuttering and cutting in and out. I'm trying to use this program to replay video files taken on a Canon DSLR by using the DSLR Controller app. I transfer the MOV video files directly to the sd card on the samsung tablet so being able to view them properly without the audio dropping in and out is important.
I would appreciate any help or advice as to how I can make this work properly. Thank you for any assistance with this inquiry.
Sincerely,
Rick
Hello everyone,
maybe someone already had the issue below and could help me out...
I've turned my two old SGS2's with broken screen into an IP Webcam.
Both are gt-9100
Both have android 4.1.2 and the latest version of IP Webcam.
First, I've chosen the MOV video format, and when I try to open it, then it plays fine (but it produces quite huge files).
Second, I've chosen the WebM video format,
and when I access the webcam via browser (192.168.10.19:8080),
then I can see the thumbnails of recordings, but when I try to open them - nothing happens.
Also when I try to download the file and open it via MediaPlayer Classic, it does not work - "unable to open file".
Also, when I try to open the file directly on the phone, it does not work.
The same issue happens when I chose the MP4 format...
The issue occurs on both SGS2 phones.
Note that I have K-Lite Mega Codec Pack installed, and MediaPlayer opens other mp4 files without problem.
Any ideas what could be wrong with the recording?
Any help would be very appreciated!
Hello,
Thx for reply.
However streaming is not the problem.
I can see the stream from both SGS2 phones.
They are set to record the video on event (movement).
The video is recorded as mp4 (or webm) and saved in the internal memory.
I can see the video thumbnails,
but I cannot play it neither in the browser, nor via any player that I know of.
What's werid is that when I choose a MOV format, then it works well....
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
Please post your question in the forum linked below

The experts there may be able to help.
Found the solution.
Seems like the trick was in the video settings.
Voice Bitrate 64kbit/s
Video bitrate 1500kbit/s <- here is catch #1, it does not work if anything else is set (in my case)
Video Format MP4
Resolution 800x480 <- here is catch #2, it does not work if anything else is set (in my case)
Quality 50
Limit FPS no limit
Now I am able to play mp4 files recorded by IP Webcam.
