It just makes it a mis-named vob file. > Realizing this, I would love to have the opportunity to rename the files (they're .mov files - quicktime format, I believe), but the problem is that they don't show up in the Import Photos app, and they're otherwise (so far) completely inaccessible. I tried using my card reader again (I may have said this already), but the "drives" won't mount (the reader shows up as 2 drives - CF and MM, which is similar to SD) under CentOS, and my WinXP guest also can't do anything with them - XP recognizes that <something> is there, but nothing shows up in the explorer (or My Computer), and all I can do is dismount the <blank> <something>s. I _can_ play the videos on the camera, but when I try to do that while connected to the computer, the camera blanks out and powers off. I even tried to dd from /dev/sdd and /dev/sdd1 (based on the dmesg output), and it says there's no such file. I put in fresh batteries - nothing. ????? mhr
