Slow-motion Playback??

Hi this is my Second HVX200 and for whatever reason my old one would playback in slow-mo if I shot higher Frame Rates. This one with the 16g card does not. Are there some internal settings I am not familiar with? Am I not setting up the camera properly? I am certain I used the same settings as the last camera. Messed around and looked at the manual but did not find my answers..
 
to have the camera play it back in slow motion it needs to be shot in 24pN mode with the frame rate set to 60p rather than just shooting in 60p.
you can however take that 60p footage and bring it into an NLE or after effects and play it at 24p and it will be slow motion.
The frame rate adjustment in 24pN mode sets the clip to be 24p for the purposes of playback but 60p for recording. The camera knows that footage shot at 60p mode is 60p and will only play it back at 60fps. Both ways will give you the same number of frames for slow motion when played back at 24fps. The difference is that the 60p footage needs to go through an NLE and rendered back out at 24p, but has audio. 24pN set to 60fps means the footage will always play back slow...but will have no audio at all.

I probably over explained that so I hope it makes sense
