Selecting the method for creating a disc of movies
• The PlayStation®3 may not be available in some countries/regions.
• Movies recorded with the [60p 28M(PS)]/[50p 28M(PS)], [60i 24M(FX)]/[50i
24M(FX)] or [24p 24M(FX)]/[25p 24M(FX)] setting in [Record Setting] are converted
by “PMB” in order to create an AVCHD disc. This conversion can take a long time.
Also, you cannot create a disc with the original image quality. If you want to keep the
original image quality, you must store your movies on a Blu-ray disc (page 196).
• To play back movies recorded with the [60p 28M(PS)]/[50p 28M(PS)] setting on a
Blu-ray disc, the device that is compatible with the AVCHD Ver 2.0 format is required.
• “AVCHD View movies” are movies that were recorded in the [AVCHD 60i/60p]/
[AVCHD 50i/50p] mode of [File Format].
You can create a disc with a Blu-ray disc recorder and DVD writer.
The disc type you can create depends on the device used.
Notes

the DVD Writer or connect the DVD Writer via USB connection to transfer the data.
