Notes
Access from the computer using the supplied
software “PMB.” Do not modify the files or
folders on the camcorder from the computer.
The image files may be destroyed or may not be
played back.
When importing a long movie or edited image,
use the supplied software “PMB.” If you use any
other software, images may not be imported
properly.
If file size exceeds 2 GB during a long recording,
a new file is created automatically, resulting
in the movie being divided into multiple files
when you view the recording media directly
from your computer after recording.
If you import images without using supplied
“PMB,” files automatically created (due to the
2 GB limit) may not be concatenated. Even if
you usually use other editing software, use the
supplied software “PMB” to import images to
the computer to ensure files are concatenated
and imported to the computer.
Operation is not guaranteed, if you perform the
above operation.
When you delete image files, follow the steps
on page 40. Do not delete the image files on the
camcorder directly from the computer.
Do not copy the files on the recording
media from the computer. Operation is not
guaranteed.
