	this folder are recorded in the JPEG
	format.

[PRL001]:	MPEG4 moving picture is recorded
	in ASF format (MOL001.ASF etc.).
	It can be played back with Windows
	Media Player (ver.6.4 and later).
	Because of their small size, these
	files are well suited for transmitting
	data through telephone lines etc.
	To play back a 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). To play back with Mac
	OS, Windows Media Player for
	Macintosh 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.vm1 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 card capacity. Some of this capacity is used to protect and manage the copyright data, and not all capacity is available as a conventional memory for a Palmcorder, Personal Computer or others.

Capacity that can be used as conventional memory:
