Humbug - the video is warts and all, no excuses offered. Just wanted to catch up.
Shuck Raider - we were staying in Las Arenas on the As114. I should have some video of that somewhere. I will dig it out. I loved the N625 from Cangas to Riano, twisty and scenic!!
Wildbeeste - I checked the Pt 3 vid and it played OK for me. Try it again.
As far as the tekkie stuff goes, I was using two JVC cameras, one of which had an AV in port. The one with the AV in port had a bullet camera connected to it. The bullet cam was duct taped to my helmet (sophisticated eh?) The other camera was sat on top of my standard BMW pannier held on with - you guessed it, duct tape. The Pannier cam was sat on a small pad of foam rubber to reduce vibration but it would work quite well without the pad.
Here is a pic from an earlier holiday when we stuck the pannier camera on Blues'n'Two's bike. The vid from that holiday is also on you tube
from this thread
Real hi-tech stuff!
The pannier camera is a JVC GR-D24
The helmet cam recorder is a JVC GR-D270 with the AV in socket
The AV in signal comes from an RF Concepts Ltd bullet camera kit using a 1/3" CCD Color camera Super HAD 480TVL from Sony. RF Concepts are at
http://www.rfconcepts.co.uk/cctv%20cameras.htm#Miniature%20Cameras. I bought last summer and the web site seems to have changed a bit but I was able to buy something they called a Pack 3 for PAL which had all the cables, battery packs etc in a neat case.
If you want to play with bullet cameras, you will need a camcorder which can accept a signal in from an external source and many cameras don't. I did not speak to RF Concepts but I guess they could probably offer some guidance on other suitable cameras to run a bullet camera with. I found this camera after trawling round a number of shops muttering 'AV in' and getting blank looks from the sales people!
The video material was edited on Adobe Premiere to create a standard sized .avi file. Premiere cannot convert to MPEG 4 which is the file type you tube prefer so I loaded the .avi file into Pinnacle studio to convert it to the you tube preferred input format, MPEG4, 320x240, 30fps.
Hope that was useful
