Saving Movies onto Standard-Definition Discs (DVD)
You can convert your high-definition video recordings into standard
definition and save them onto standard DVDs. These are ideal for shar-
ing your videos with family and friends since, unlike AVCHD or Blu-ray
discs, standard DVDs can be played back on most DVD players and
computers’ DVD drives.
You can complete the conversion to standard definition in the cam-
corder and then use the supplied software ImageMixer 3 SE to save
the converted scenes and burn them onto DVDs in your computer.
Installation
See ‘PIXELA Applications’ Installation Guide.
Using the software
See ‘ImageMixer 3 SE Software Guide’ (PDF file).
Even without a computer, you can convert your video recordings into
standard definition scenes and create DVDs using the optional DW-100
DVD Burner. Refer to this section along with the relevant sections in the
instruction manual of the DW-100.
