Panasonic SV-AV50 Protecting Files File Protection, Formatting the Memory Card

≥Erasing many files may take a little time. Wait until the Power/Card Access Lamp stopped flash.

≥Recorded voice data always has serial numbers even after an arbitrary file is deleted. For example, if [100]TRACK003 is deleted, the current [100]TRACK004 will change into [100]TRACK003 and the files that follow will also change accordingly.

≥Do not turn the power off or remove the Memory Card while a file is being deleted. Otherwise, the Memory Card may be damaged.

≥Delete voice (VOICE) files by the SD Video Camera or the SD-MovieStage.

ªProtecting Files (File Protection)

(l 35)

≥Even if files are locked, the files will be deleted when the Memory Card is formatted.

≥Any music files (MPEG2-AAC and MP3) cannot be locked or unlocked.

≥Files recorded by Voice Recording Functions are automatically locked (to

prevent accidental erasure).

≥The File Protection carried out by this SD Video Camera is only effective for this SD Video Camera.

≥The SD Memory Card has a write protection switch on it. If the switch is moved to the [LOCK] side, you cannot write to or format the Memory Card. If it is moved back, you can.

≥Locking/Unlocking many files may take a little time. Wait until the Power/Card Access Lamp stopped flash.

ªWriting Printing Data on a Memory Card (DPOF Setting)

(l 36)

≥DPOF is the abbreviation of Digital Print Order Format. DPOF is used to select images you want to print. DPOF can only be used with products that support this feature.

≥The number of prints can be set from 0 to

6299.

≥This SD Video Camera may not recognize the DPOF set by another type of device.

≥DPOF-setting many files may take a little time. Wait until the Power/Card Access Lamp stopped flash.

ªPlaying Back Still Pictures One

by One (P. Slide Show) (l 37)

≥Playback time may take longer than usual depending on the picture.

≥If the P. Slide show data is not recorded on the Memory Card, the display reverts to

the picture index screen.

≥The time for the Slide show set by SD-MovieStage Ver.2.5 is not applied to the SD Video Camera.

ªFormatting the Memory Card

(l 38)

≥If the Memory Card performance becomes unstable (recording or playback fails, etc.), try to format it.

≥If a message to prompt you to check the Memory Card comes up, it will be necessary to format it in order to use it on the SD Video Camera.

≥By formatting, all data stored in the Memory Card (e.g., still pictures, MPEG4 moving pictures, voice data, music data) are erased.

≥Format the Memory Card on the SD Video Camera or on the SD-Jukebox Ver.4 (supplied). A Memory Card formatted on a machine other than the SD Video Camera may not be used. A Memory Card formatted on the SD Video Camera may not be used on other machines. Format a Memory Card on the machine on which it is used.

≥Particularly for a Memory Card containing music files, check in the Memory Card using SD-Jukebox Ver.4, with which the music files were recorded, then format it. (For details, read the PDF-format manual for SD-Jukebox Ver.4.) (It may be unable to check in depending on a SD-Jukebox’s version.)
