What video cable did you mean, Beaker? Confused


This is the one I have (look for the "Video Cable for Generation 4 portable video"):
http://www.archos.com/products/video/archo...mp;lang=en

It is meant to connect the Archos to a TV, but I've also used it to connect a camcorder to the Archos. Works fine, but my camcorder always shows some on-screen information which is then recorded too Sad

I first tried a universal RCA-to-jack cable, but somehow that did not work Confused

Wow, nice device! Thumbs Up Would have been a bit too expensive for me, but having the touch screen is very nice. On my 504 I only have hard buttons, which are not backlit. This is a bit of a pain at night in the car... Sad

You have to look under "the offer of the week" link. Here it is but I guess this link will be invalid after the 31st March.

If you select the offer of the week for Switzerland (in English) then this offer is displayed, also says that the offer is for Europe only, however if you select your country as the UK then the offer of the week is an MP3 player Confused

Thanks Woody.

Ummmm, so who knows what I will get? Censored locks Confused

We will see, worrying because Cheese Land is not in Europe, but it took my money, and accepted Switzerland delivery address and left the vat off the price as it recognised me being outside the EU.

I guess I will have to wait and see. Sorry for raising UK peoples hopes. Whistle

Yay-hey! Got what I ordered, all 160gb of it. What a wonderful piece of kit. Very Happy

Just need to learn what it really can and cant do now. I do lots of "on location" photography and see it as a real bonus for immediate access and display of pictures without lugging a laptop around.

Cant wait to experiment with its tv/movie recording capabilities for later playback either.

One happy chappy.

Help, Big Cry Big Cry

having finally decided to splash the cash on a 504 160gb, it would seem Archos are not selling the helmet CAM.

Im a bit of a duffer at this so would appreciate some advice. Where can I buy a helmet CAM that is compatible.

Thanks in advance

Just found these on Ebay.

I couldn't get mine from Archos, ended up buying a Chinese copy. It works, though. Would imagine this is a copy, but don't know.
