ªAbout the SD Memory Card and
MultiMediaCard
SD Memory Card
The SD Memory Card (supplied) is virtually the same size as
a MultiMediaCard. It is an external memory card that is
available in larger capacities. It has a write protect switch to
prevent data writing and card formatting, as well as a
copyright protection function.
SD Logo is a trademark.
MultiMediaCard
The MultiMediaCard is a compact, lightweight and
removable external memory card.
All other company and product names in the operating
instructions are trademarks or registered trademarks of
their respective corporations.
Files recorded on a SD Memory Card or MultiMediaCard
It may not be possible to play back the files on this
Palmcorder recorded on and created by other equipment or
vice versa. For this reason, check the compatibility of the
equipment in advance.
ªAbout the compatibility of the card files
Data files recorded on SD Memory Cards or
MultiMediaCards by this Palmcorder conform with DCF
(Design Rules for Camera Files Systems Universal
Standard) established by JEITA (Japan Electronics and
Information Technology Industries Association).
If you attempt to play back files recorded with this
Palmcorder in other equipment or to play back files
recorded with other equipment in this Palmcorder, you may
not be able to play them back. Please check the
compatibility with other equipment in advance.
ªAbout the folder structure when using the
Memory Card in a personal computer
When a Card with data recorded on it is inserted into a
personal computer, folders will be displayed as in the figure
below.
[100CDPFP]: The images (Imga0001.jpg, etc.) in this
folder are recorded in the JPEG format.
[MISC]: Files in which DPOF Data has been set to
the image are in this.
[TITLE]: This contains the data of original titles
(Usr00001.jpg, Usr00001.ttl, etc.).
[PRL001]: MPEG4 moving picture is recorded in ASF
format (MOL00001.ASF etc.). It can be
played back with Windows Media Player
(ver.6.4 and later). Because of this small
size, these files are well suited for
transmitting data through a telephone lines
etc.. To play back moving picture with
Windows Media Player, select a file and
double click. Necessary software is
automatically downloaded and starts playing
back. (Internet connection is required).
[DCIM], [IM01CDPF], [PRIVATE], [VTF], [SD_VIDEO],
[SD_VOICE] etc. are necessary items in the folder
structure. They have nothing to do with actual operations.
In the Card Mode, the Palmcorder automatically saves file
numbers (Imga0001.jpg, etc.) along with the images. The
file numbers are recorded with each image as consecutive
numbers.
In the [SD_VC100] folder, the Voice data (Mob001.vml
etc.) is recorded. It, however, cannot be played back on a
Personal Computer.
The [SD_VOICE] folder and the Voice files in the folder are
set as hidden. Depending on the settings of your personal
computer, this hidden folder and these hidden files might
not appear in Windows Explorer or the "My Computer"
screen.
The memory capacity indicated on the SD Card label
corresponds to the total amount of the cards capacity.
Some of this capacity is used to protect and manage the
copyright data, and not all capacity is available as
conventional memory for a Palmcorder, Personal
Computer or others. Capacity that can be used as
conventional memory:
16MB Card: about 14,900,000 bytes
