What is the AVCHD?
This is a format for recording and playing back highly detailed high definition images.
Images are recorded based on the MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 codec for compressing images and audio is
recorded in Dolby Digital. It is compatible with various discs such as DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, DVD-R and
DVD-R DL.
About the compatibility of discs recorded on this unit (Be careful about the following)
≥
They are not compatible with devices other than those that support the AVCHD. (Refer to the
operating instructions of the device for details.)
≥
There are some cases where the recorded motion pictures cannot be played back, even if the device
supports the AVCHD. In such cases, play the recorded motion picture with this unit instead.
≥
Do not insert them into devices that are not compatible (DVD players, computers, etc. that do not
support the AVCHD) as they will not be played back.
≥
A format message may appear when you insert a disc into a device that is not compatible. (If you
accidentally format the disc, the pictures you recorded will all be deleted.)
≥
We recommend setting [AUTO PROTECT] to
[ON] (
l

deleted by mistake. (This function’s default
setting is [ON].)
