Memplig problems

I finnaly got the Memplug MS (that took 2 weeks to ship) but unfortunatly Ive been having problems with it.

Everything is seeming to work ok, I registered Pidirect and thanks to my 128 mb memstick I have 128 mb of memory on my visor . The backup works great, I even tested it and it restored my visor exactly how it was before I did the hard reset to test.

The main problem is now is gmovie. I cant register it? The manual gives you a reg code and when I go to register it, it asks you for a name and reg code. So I put in my name and the reg code and click ok but all it does is just highlight the reg code and do nothing, very frustrating. Then when I try to convert movie files, it cant convert them and tells me I may need Quicktime 5 to convert and I have Quicktime 6. Also, is there a way to directly hotsync the movies or video clips directly to the memory stick instead of me having to first put them on my visor, which limits the movies to the max of 8 mb (since my Visor is 8 mb), and then having to transfer them to the memstick? I guess if not, ill need a pc memory stick reader (great another thing I have to buy).

The second problem is veiwing pics that I take with our sony digital camera. Are the Jpegs supposed to take about 30 secs to come up on the Visor prism screen? Or is it doing something wrong?

Thats about it, help is very much appreciated. Thanks!

Jonathan

My registration code seemed to be on the Gmovie CD itself, if I remember. G-Movie has been bought out by another company.

There is a program that will allow you to view the contents of your memory card while you are plugged into your hotsync cradle. Then you can copy over the gmovie files without any memory stick reader. The program is called "syncwizard" and you can download a trial from Palmgear.

Make sure you keep an eye on the updates at PiTech. They often add new features to the software of the Memplugs, and the downloads are almost always free.
