Solution

High-definition movies can be down-converted to standard definition by one of the following methods.

Using the [Convert HD -> SD] (MPEG2 format) command on the menu or the <AUTO/WEB> button, convert and copy movies in the built-in memory to a memory card.

Refer to "Down-converting movies for video-sharing Web sites".

Using [PIXELA VideoBrowser] supplied with the camcorder, create a DVD in standard definition (DVD-Video format).

Refer to the instruction manual of [PIXELA VideoBrowser].

When connecting to a TV or a recorder, use the bundled STV-250N stereo video cable to output the analog video signal in standard definition.

Refer to "Copying Recordings to an External Video Recorder".
