There are several ways to transfer your content:
•
For Windows

and drop the video files directly using the file manager application on the computer. See
Managing files using a computer
on page 107.
•
If you have a PC or an Apple
®
Mac

computer, use Xperia™ Companion to organize
content and transfer video files to your device.

Movie Creator
The Xperia™ Movie Creator automatically creates short videos of around 30 seconds in
length using existing photos and videos. The application automatically determines the
timeline to create its movie. For example, it could take a selection of photos and videos
from a Saturday afternoon outing or from a random seven-day period and create a movie
for you. When this highlight-style movie is ready, you get notified. You can then edit it as
desired. For example, you can edit the title, delete scenes, change the music, or add
more photos and videos.
