Transferring video content to your device

computer. There are several ways to transfer your content:
•
For Windows

only: Connect your device to a computer using a USB cable and drag
and drop the video files directly using the file manager application on the computer.
See
Managing files using a computer on page 129 .
•
If you have a PC or an Apple
®
Mac

computer, use Xperia™ Companion to organise
content and transfer video files to your device.

Movie Creator
The Xperia™ Movie Creator automatically creates short videos of around 30 seconds
in length using existing photos and videos. The application automatically determines
the timeline to create its movie. For example, it could take a selection of photos and
videos from a Saturday afternoon outing or from a random seven-day period and
create a movie for you. When this highlight-style movie is ready, you get notified. You
can then edit it as desired. For example, you can edit the title, delete scenes, change
the music or add more photos and videos.
