 Aiptek Quality Control and Customer Service Missing in Action February 18, 2010
Stephen Patterson (Kansas City, MO)
I was really looking forward to putting this inexpensive camcorder to work, but unfortunately we never even got to the starting line. After examining the contents of the package I discovered that the battery charger cradle has a round power plug but the wall charger supplied has a mini-usb. Hmmm? Can you say square peg in a round hole? OK, no big deal...I will call Aiptek in California and have them send the correct wall charger, or battery cradle. Boy was I naive. After spending 20 minutes on the phone trying to convince the customer service rep that I was really not interested in trying to steal an extra cable for my camcorder I was informed that they would not send a replacement until I returned (at my expense) the incorrect cable. I then asked to speak to a supervisor. 10 minutes later and the rep came back on the phone and said that since I had purchased from Amazon I would have to take the issue up with them. Fine. Amazon returns, I learned, are painless. I returned this piece of junk and ordered a real camcorder from a real manufacturer (Canon). Save yourself from Aiptek. They obviously have no control over the Chinese contract manufacturer who is building this junk for them. Five stars for Amazon though, who continue to impress me with first class service.
 The product I've recieved November 24, 2009
J. Nichols (Oklahoma)
Did not come with a USB Cable to connect the camera to the PC, or TV, Couldn't find a place to contact you so I thought I'd try this.
Any ideas or help?
 Aipek .asf video playing on computer July 14, 2009
Joe E. Perez (Phoenix, Arizona USA)
There are several ways to play the .asf video files on the computer. First, media player in my windows vista does not play these files. It keeps saying there is an audio codec missing. I have the VLC player and it does play these files. I just went into the default programs area to associate .asf files with the vlc player instead of media player. You can also change the file name from .asf to .asx, I tried that and media player did play the .asx file. Also you can convert the file from .asf to something that media player does play such as .avi files. The camera software disc that came with the camera has a movie converter or you can use any other converter. I really like this camera, espesially it's ability to record off the tv or dvd player. In fact I was looking for a low priced camera to put in my shirt pocket while recording off my night vision device and I found it. My Canon TX1 does not have a video input,only output.
Cheap, poor quality, broken video files May 24, 2009
Antonie Struyk
The video is poor quality. The build quality is EXTREMELY poor, the charger for the battery that is supplied is finicky (the battery has to be seated 'just right' in order for it to charge at all) and when using the A/V in it often creates broken files that cannot be played back at all.
 Quality Control Issues May 21, 2009

I purchased this three years ago when it first came out - including all the extras, battery etc...unfortunately, the quality is simply not there. Image is fuzzy, shakes easily and although convenient - the pictures and images left a lot to be desired. However, the biggest problem was the batteries - every one of them died quickly after just a few charges none would hold a charge. Basically, an inferior piece of junk that had a lot of potential. BTW, I didn't exactly have high expectations - just wanted something to leave in the purse or toss around for those spur of the moment situations. Didn't even fit the bill for that.
