What do you mean? Are you not seeing the video at all or just a portion of it? I'd reset your camera back to factory default settings and then select video play back and see how it works.

I don't think the video preview that is taken by the W5 takes up the whole screen. This is because I believe video is taken in a wide aspect, and the screen itself doesn't match that aspect, so you'll see black bars around the video.
