With an IR remote the camera goes to sleep after 15 minutes - same with this?

I believe it depends on the camera setting. My camera a Nikon 3100 has different setting s that I can change.

I've seen no IR. I run it in movie mode only. Other modes may react differently.I use the pixel shifting feature, as well. As such, I don't use "just scan" (which turns off pixel shifting), but instead use 16:9.

THere is a led which illuminates when pushed, but does not stay on. The camera chirps once for starting recording and twice for stop and makes a shutter sound when snapping a pic with the remote. I hope that helps. I have never had the remote not work very responsive.

It may be a setting on the dvr or a issue with the power connection but I would order another one to replace to be safe. You could spend more time troubleshooting than makes sense. You can try covering the camera to provoke the ir feature and see if it loses signal.

No, it just duplicates the functions on the shutter button. So, you can set the camera's exposure to "bulb", and use the remote to open and close your shutter (and if you shoot in mirror up mode you'll get even less jiggle), but you'll still have to watch a clock to determine when to release the button and close the shutter. I'm not aware of a remote with an integrated timer.

Not at all. The problem ir DOES have is terrible flight time. After only a few flights the best I can get now is about two minutes. It's a shame because the camera works perfectly.

There is probably either too much ambient light in the room or the IR Leds are reflecting off some nearby surface and fooling the light sensor into thinking there is plenty of light in the room (thus turning off the IR Leds). You could try placing a bit of tape or something semi-transparent over the light sensor and see if that helps. Or as a quick test, while it's flickering, place your finger over the sensor and see if the IR Leds stay on (night vision mode). If it's too close to some surface, move it further away. If those suggestions don't work, the camera may be defective.

There is nothing you can do. All of the units I have purchased, the remotes are total and utter crap. I just adjust it manually. They work if you are like 3 feet in front of the unit and are pointing directly at the IR sensor.

I am having exactly the same problem, taking the battery out for 30 minutes works for a time but the problem starts again after a few days. Leaving the battery out until required sometimes makes the camera difficult to switch on or off. I don't think that Creative are interested. If anyone has the answer please let us know.

The remote power does not have to be on for the camera to continue recording, up to 5 minutes, (as long as the internal battery is charged). Once power is removed, the camera uses its internal battery to continue recording for the duration you choose in the settings, (1, 3, or 5 minutes).

The remote is IR. Have to point it at the receiver for it to work. Covering the end of the remote and turning away from the receiver, renders the remote nonoperable.

I've done exposures up to 16 minutes with this remote, but it's capable of hours long exposures.

I haven't found one, all of my other remotes get picked up by the splitter. I covered the IR sensor on the splitter and just get up to change inputs, it's a little inconvenient but I was having to get up anyway when another remote changed it. Any help would be appreciated if someone else has figured it out.

It does have this function, there is a switch on the side of the camera to turn the IR on. Honestly I haven't needed to use it or try it yet, so I'm not sure how well it works. But yes the function is there.

Make sure your camera is in the mode to use the remote. I had a problem as well at first and then realized my camera was not in the mode for remote use.

Does it matter? The camera is faulty and doesn't detect motion, but the remote has a lot of different uses, as follows (If it worked): Special Functions The camera also has several other settings which are controlled by codes entered via the remote control. To perform the action, make sure you enter the key sequence as shown while the remote is pointed at the camera.
