Is There A Camcorder Compatible With A Chromebook?

Luckyone

Hi,

I was just wondering if there is a camcorder compatible with a Chromebook?

If I brought a camcorder that uses a SD card would I be able to see the video taken by putting the SD card in the chromebook?

Thanks xxx

Just thought I would ask again :j

If your Chromebook has an SD slot, then I imagine you can. Or if it doesn't, you can get a USB card reader pretty cheap on Ebay or Amazon, and plug that in.

This isn't really about camcorders, it's about video file types. I'm sure Chromebooks can handle most. Find out what they can handle, and find a camcorder that'll make them.

If there's any issue viewing video on the Chromebook then it's likely that VLC Player will have the answer.

I would suggest you take your chrome book into a shop with display camcorders and see if you can connecf them. Buy the one that works :-)

But is there a version of VLC Player for Chrome OS?

The website you linked to suggests not.

But there's no version of VLC that will run on Chrome OS.
