I have just purchased the following :
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/580-SONY-HELMET-C ... 2561ba167e
When I plug it into my Archos via the travel adapter plug the Cam works fine, but I get a high pitched squealing when I plug the microphone in?
Has anyone had a similar problem and can poitn me in the right direction as to what is wrong?
Any help appreciated ...thanks ... Chris
