Both are CR2325, just opend again and had a look. Both was facing the correct way. Now that i put them back in the icon shows one bar (50%?). But now i looked at the packaging to the batteries, they seem to have a "datestamp". It says: PD/EP (MMYY) 0309/0316 PD/EP (MMYY) 0704/0711 on them. Im guessing PD is production date, but whats EP? Im guessing one of the batteries is older, could that be the problem?

I tried starting the Viso, opend the batterytray for a while (untill screen got blank and some more) the pushed it back in. Still empty batteries? And i cant see it calibrating itself

The batteries are not upside down, i know that. Did you turn of the device before pulling out the old batteries?

I tried to change batteries on my Viso but its still showing empty. What am i doing wrong? The manual says: Should it be on or off when calibrating itself? Neither seems to work for me. The battery icon has not toggled between anything, its just flashing as if its empty

Done

I love that someone comments the code! And thank you very much for bugtesting it. Yet again you found a bug i didnt think of. Its not a big bug but i MUST be fixed. I see your point, but the undo-button are not supposed to work with copying, only when just a rename has been done. When i tested the copy on some videofiles i noticed i really wanted a progressbar. My motto in software development is that nothing is impossible, its just harder to accomplish. But i do belive this will be very hard since im leting windows take care of the actual copy-part. I dont know if you noticed the problem with the old undo. I just had one of them moments, i never tried if the bug really existed but im quite sure it can be done. DONT DO THIS If you rename files the undobutton will rename the files back to what it used to be. But if you would rename, then select new files, and then hit undo. I belive you would rename the wrong files. And thats because the array Files() are used in both cases. And thats the reason i have Files(), OldFiles() and NewFiles(). I think we should have a development forum at DZ.com, there is a lot of technology and computers in the sport. I will fix it tomorrow morning. Thanks again for the input, i really appreciate it. EDIT: oh, forgot one thing, did the digital signature work? It should (in theory) give you a option to trust the file so that it will always open with macros enabled

Could a moderator please edit post no 4 in this thread. Just make a edit saying 'dont use this version, use the last posted version please.' or something? I know there are 'issues' with the older versions that could result in (not very serious) crashes. The only thing i think can be slightly problematic is the older version of the Undo-button, but still, latest version is the best.

Yep noticed, but i could do a IsArray(Files). Thank you for the help! Ok have a copy-option aswell now. As always do a dummytest first on txt-files. I have not yet managed to get it to fail, but please try on txts first. News: * Buttons change color depending on if you are "done". * Fixed a MAJOR problem with undo-button (PLEASE DONT USE OLDER VERSIONS) * The files 'should' have a digital signature, this should let you choose to always permit the file to be opend with macros enabled. * The Undo-button ONLY works when you renamed files, not when you copy them. The button 'Copy' and the button 'Rename' are placed on top of each other. To use the Rename button simply leave the destination folder empty. To use the Copy button, use the Destination button and choose a destination folder. The rename button will disappear and copy button will be visible. To get rename button back, remove destination folder. When you choose a folder you can either choose a existing folder, or right click to create a folder, or choose the parent folder and type in the name of the folder you wish to create in the textbox. As always, tell me about bugs or any changes that needs to be done. Hope this helps you Mark.

Tying? You mean making it smaler? (with strings or velcro) Its because the slider acts as a brake slowing down your forward speed. Just as a pilotchute does. The forward speed is your friend as long as you can control it, because you can use it to get lift (softer landings) Unless you are a student i think its a good thing you collaps the slider. Open, collaps slider, then release the breaks.

Thank you so much for that! I have a question, what settings did you have on the CHD? It looks like you have sharpness very high, is that the case? Could you perhaps upload the rtc-file and let me have a look at the settings (unless you changed them since the recording). Thanks again for the awsome video.

I never thought of that problem. You are right, all i need to do is move down the ReDim and find out if UBound(Files)>0 I dont know if you are thinking the same as me, but i could use the same If-statement as TextBox1.value="", right? I mean: If UserForm1.TextBox1.Value = "" Or UBound(Files)=0 Then MsgBox "Filename missing", vbCritical 'Errormessage Exit Sub 'Stop macro End If Filename missing can mean two things And i dont have to make another If, which would slow down the code (very litle). I will might have some time to work on it tomorrow, need some sleep now.

The autorun is easy. Make a txt-file in rootfolder of memorystick. Write the following code in it: [autorun] open= >>>Drive:\Path\Filename.xls

Very nice of you to do this, but may i suggest you post a new thread with those videos. Make it a blind test, just name the videos 1, 2 and 3 and make a thread poll. If its true what everyone here says, the Sony should easily win the "contest", and considering what people say in other threads GoPro HD should be second and CHD in last place. As far as i know nobody has ever done a side by side comparison like this, so it will be intressting to see what camera everyone REALLY thinks is the best without knowing anything about the videos. Give it a week or so before publsihing what camera is the owner of what video.

New working version

EDIT: Ok, i just realised i never tested this version before uploading it. Lets just say, im working on it. Ok, i think the final version is complete (unless someone finds a bug). Changes since last version: A undo-button has been added, it will undo the latest (1) action. But it will not redo what you undid. The startvalue is not limited in any way (i belive) except it has to be numeric. If you make the misstake as i explained in post above, it will not crash anymore. It will try to do the renaming reverse. If that also fails, it will alert you of the problem. And since i noticed there is people reading my code i added comments. Alot of the coding has been simplified making it faster and easier to read (for humans). I think thats about it. I have not yet got the other computer running, so this will have to do for now. Just tell me if you find any bugs or need any changes

I thought of that, but i really hate errormessages. I only use them when i have no other way of solving things. The errormessage will pretty much do the same thing as the VBA-crash. Just alert you of a problem. The code cant owerwrite (at least it shouldnt) unless i do a 'on error go to next', that might cause problems. What i think can be a solution is to reverse the code. Instead of doing: For a=1 to UBound(Files) I could (if file exists) do: For a=Ubound(Files) to 1 step -1 That will make the code start with Video_15 and go to Video_5. I think that would work, at least i have not found a reason why it wouldnt yet

Ok, I made the changes you asked for. But i made made the software select the number of #´s. So it should "make it look good" There is a new textbox where you can type in the startnumber or use the spinbuttons (Up-Down arrows). I have noticed one "problem" with that you can now choose the startnumber. example: Lets say you want to name them Video_5-Video_15, and you forget to change the startnumber. That will restult in filenames will be Video_1-Video_10. So if you just select the files again and try to rename them as Video_5-Video_15, it will "crash" because the file Video_5 already exists. I recomend you to create a folder and a bunch of txt-files to play around with before messing something up. The A1 cell in Sheet3 is now the one you choose startdirectory, if you use it. I thought it looks nicer to have a clean sheet in the background. Undobutton? In the zip there is one xls (97-2003) and one xlsm (2007) EDIT: ok, now there is a attached zip

Sure i will fix that. Do you want the numbering to be automatic, so when you are renaming 5 files you will get name_#. And when you rename 15 files you will get name_01 to name_15. And if you ever do more than 99 you will get ###, or do you want to be able to choose the number of #´s? About the numbering not starting from 1, simple. Give me a few minutes. The reason i made it a excel VBA project and not stand alone software is because *someone* broke my PC where i have all the development tools. If i get it running i can rewrite the code to a stand alone software. The cell A1 in sheet1 can be used to choose a startdirectory. So if you have all your videos in C:\Videos\Raw-files\ you could type that in the cell and the select-files window will automaticly start in that directory every time. Do you need a undo button? I think i can make one if needed.

Wrong. Just a little change in air pressure. There are little changes in pressure during the whole jump, so what makes it notice the pull? When you lose so much vertical speed that you cant do while still in freefall the Viso records it as you are under canopy.

Without looking up, how do you know you have a canopy above your head? The Viso does the same, it "feels" the snatchforce from the canopy (sudden loss of speed)

Tell me how you want it to work and i will make a software for you. As i couldnt wait for your reply i have already done one version You need MS excel and you need to enable macros. Tell me what you think, and what could be changed EDIT: I think this is roughly how Acdsee works, i dont have it myself but i googled how it works and as far as i could understand this is close EDIT 2: You need to right click and save as on the file below EDIT 3: LOL, it seems the file gets downloaded as a zip. Rename the file to RMK.xlsm and it should work

So how do you want this software to work?

I just remove the bootie from my foot when under canopy. I have sown in magnets in the jumpsuit to keep the booties away. One pair of magnets are sown in at the tip of your toes and one pair at knee height, so i just unzip and attach them to my knees. The magnets i used are neodymium-type magnets glued in pair (side by side) on to a washer. I really hated landing on the booties as you cant move as good as without them, and they wear out

So does that mean that a headdown tandem has roughly the same fallrate as a drougeless tandem on belly? Intressting. Never thought of it that way, but its quite logical. Two people in headdown creates the same drag as... well... people in headdown. And that is roughly the same as two people on belly in tandem.
