Sony 1080i HD Camcorders

Thanks for your quick response. It was formatted for AVCHD FORMAT/HD IN VIDEO MODE. The disc plays fine in the camcorder and when hooked up to the HD TV. Both Sony and Samsung said I should play it in other players at Best Buy or Circuit City and see what happens. If it plays on other players we know it wasn't the camcorder or the disc. I am going to try that this afternoon and see what happens. I saw a personal review elsewhere that said there is a compatibility problem. I'll let you know what the results are. My guess is that it will play just fine in a Sony but not in a Samsung. I hate to buy another player just for this since the Samsung, after the firmware updates, plays even the latest movies just fine.
