Can't load Barry Green's scene file into my camera

Hi everyone, I decided to load Barry's scene files (from af100 dvd) into the camera. I followed those instructions :
Then drag the "PRIVATE" directory onto the SD card,
replacing its "PRIVATE" directory. That should
copy all the appropriate directories and all their
contents onto the SD card.
Then, just load the SD card into your AF100 and
go to the Card Functions menu and load one of
the scene file packages into your camera.
Well in the card function menu there are 2 options "card format" and "card status", nothing to load any file, so then I went in Menu/Card Read, and the camera says no file. So I deleted the .TXT files (.TXT files only, not the private folder) and copied it again on the card, still nothing.
Can someone help me please.
 
Copy the private directory over, then use the Scene File->Card Read menu.

Be sure you're using the right scene files, as the scene files for the USA camera are different from the ones for the EU camera, etc.
 
allright, it works I was at the "wrong" card read menu, my bad. And thank you.
Edit : card read fail! I live in Europe but my Camera is set to 60Hz, I'll go back and check the dvd, I must have picked the wrong scene file.
 
Still doesn't work but that's ok since I just wanted to check the scene file settings to get some inspiration, to orientate my choices, and since the settings are detailed in the .TXT files (read with notepad, I didn't think of doing that before, sometimes I'm dumb!) I have everything that I need.
 
Just to be sure if I have in the . TXT file : 9 ; DETAIL CORING (-7 to 7) 0 = -7 so in this case Detail Coring is +2, right?
 
60Hz or 50Hz shouldn't matter, but whether it's USA or European does matter. You have to use the right scene files for the right camera. And yes, in that case coring would be +2, but you can't deduce all settings from that (especially something like syncro scan shutter, that's pretty much indecipherable).
 
Ok, I just understood, I edited the .TXT file replacing the US camera model number by the EU one, and it is working! I read the "read me" text too fast... sorry for that.
Thank you again.
