Q: Ipad can't see videos on SDHC card

I recently bought a Samsung HMX-F90 video camera. My ipad can see the still pictures that i've taken but can't see the videos that I've taken when I put the SDHC card in my card reader.

What format are the videos in? They need to be in an iPad compatible format.

If you're using the Apple Camera Connection Kit see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4101

They also need to be in a folder labeled DCIM and have 8-character file names.

Hi,

Thanks for this, I think this must be the problem as I don't have that format on the camera (as far as I can see)

If they aren't in a right format and follow that exact naming convention Meg mentioned then the iPad simply will not see them.
