Notes
A DVD-RW/DVD-R/+RW
recorded on this camcorder must
be finalized on this camcorder
before using it in your PC.
You cannot create a DVD-VR
(DVD-RAM/DVD-RW) on
Macintosh software.
Since the audio format of an
MPEG file imported to a
Macintosh using ImageMixer 3

be AC3 audio, no audio will be

even after installing the optional
MPEG-2 playback component;
only video is played back. To
play back the imported MPEG
file, use ImageMixer 3 Mac
Edition.

protected, are not compatible
