I use my Sony HDR camera to record a 1 hour video.
I copy the video to my hard drive using HandyCam Utility, and then export it to a .wmv using Picture Motion Browser. I then FTP it to my server, and someone at my work downloads the file. No one at work can play the file - their Windows Media Player tells them that they do not have the correct Codec installed.
So, I open the original file (not the .wmv, but the original HD file) into Sony Vegas and export it to a .wmv. I upload this new file to the ftp server, and they download it at work, and again no one can play it - it says they are missing Codecs.
They have tried it on several computers with several versions of WIndows Media Player (7, 9, and 10) and can't get it to play.
What can I do to produce this video so that it can be viewed easily?
I would produce it as .mpg, but it's a 1 hour 15 minute presentation and would be over 4gb in size.
