Just tried to import HD from a Panasonic HDC HS9 to a Win 7 laptop, for a friend.
The supplied HD writer 2.5E wouldn`t load, and the Panasonic site shows how to upgrade to the win 7 version, but there`s no provision to download it.
Any idea what the next step is please?
The latest version is HD3, and maybe that would sort the problem.
If it's like the version I got with my sd100 you only download a small setup file from Panasonic which then loads the rest in from the cd - it does work on windows 7 tho'.
On a semi decent computer you could always download vlc player and play the mts files from the STREAM folder. - better from a copy on the hard disk than the sd card in a card reader!!
Thanks Tom.
Found HD writer AE 3.0 Publisher Panasonic Corp. after download it`s a file manager with the name of “iLivid” – Giveaway of the day!
Please confirm this is to import HD from the HDC HS9.
Thanks Pete-W. Not sure about the small setup file, there`s no information. We have copied to the HDD, and vlc plays the files. Doing it that way, doesn`t transfer the dated folders.
Does this software exist?
Livid is a video down-loader, nothing to do with Panasonic HD cameras! It also doesn`t like to be deleted-which almost made me Livid!!!
A search finds HD AE 3. Click on the download link and I get a PDF reader, or AVS converter. I just go round and round in circles, not getting anywhere. I wish those two would go away…….
I think this was what I had in mind

Thanks Pete-W.
I had seen that, and hoped for an easier solution. I`ll send him that link, and hope he can do it.
Panasonic seem to have fallen off the rails with this!
