I'd be very interested to know if this possible. This is one of the only gripes I have with this phone, or wm5.

I can just explore the 6700 from the PC via active sync and copy the files. You haven't been able to do this?

By default the videos are recorded to \My Documents\My Videos on the phone.. If you changed the setting in the camera/video app to save to storage card they are in \Storage Card\My Documents\My Videos.

If you configure active sync to sync files, it will sync *ALL* files stored in the My Documents folder on the device, which includes Videos stored in My Videos. If you are storing videos elsewhere like the storage card, this won't work. You can enable this in AS on the PC by clicking Tools -> Options on checking 'Files'.

This creates a <your_ppc's_device_name>_mobile My Documents folder in your My Documents on the PC, with all of the sync'ed files. Remember too that videos are stored by default as .3gp files, so you'll need a video player that can play them, or a utility to convert them. Not sure if activesync will convert them or not upon doing an "Explore" and copy, i just know i tried to open a .3gp video on my PC and could not. The other option is to change the file type in your camera settings for video to another format that your computer recognizes. I haven't taken the time to find out the differences in the formats, but first impression tells me .3gp is probably a smaller file or something.

Either this will help you, or you'll say DUH I'm already doing this and your question is actually about syncing videos from the storage card...LOL.
