    Can’t find my manual, shot some video in 720/30PN and some SD footage to my 16Gig E-series P2 card and a little red circle with an “x” in the middle popped up in my LCD screen in the top left…?

    aaannd- when I go to view the recorded clips in the camera, the clip number is red and will not playback. It will not let me “repair” the clips.
    But they playback just fine from my portable P2 storage/card reader.

    Depending on the video format your camera is setup to record, it will be able to playback the clips. If you change the video format it will play the clips marked with the red frame, but will not play the ones you’re able to view now.

    I hope this helps

    Even within the same recorded format- some HD clips playback, others don’t. And what about the red circle with the “X” that popped up on my LCD screen during recording?

    PDF Manuals are online…

    The camera needs to be in the SAME format as the clips you are playing back.

    Soooo… recording in different formats on the same P2 card will give the red circle with an “x” on my LCD DURING RECORDING? And if so, why did it come on during only half the clips..?

    No,…I don’t believe so.

    Did you change the camera recording mode to the same as the clip you are trying to playback off the cam/card?

    I own an HPX170 and it doesn’t show any red X warings on the top left, but it gives you a P2 red warnings in the same area when you run out of space or there’s some problem with the cards (protected, not property mounted).

    Could the X waring be card related?

    That’s what I’m afraid of… P2 Card problems. I hope it’s not going out on me.

    Make sure that your camera has the latest firmware.
