Hi, Dr. Mark! The stuff that came with the camera is virtually useless. Apparently, it is incompatible with some of the codecs in k-lite, so I just had to give it up. However, it's not really needed. I can just go into my camera like a thumb drive and pull out the video files that way.

I'm using Sony Vegas Pro Platinum, which is a very exciting program (and you get a whole month free trial with no strings attached!). However, the rendering process is flaky. Rendering just the 10 minutes took 40+ minutes, and the program crashed about 3/4 of the time. Once it crashed after 39 minutes of rendering, and I had to start all over again. It was an agonizing process to say the least. I'm not sure why it's taking so long. My computer is supposed to be blazing fast. I wouldn't even mind the 40 minutes rendering time if the damn thing didn't crash so much.
