Selecting the method for creating a
movie disc
Depending on the disc type, playable devices may vary. Select the method
that suits your disc player.
There are two ways to create a movie disc. Use “PlayMemories Home” on
your computer or create a disc using devices other than a computer, such as
a recorder.
* Movies recorded with the [60i 24M(FX)]/[50i 24M(FX)] or [24p 24M(FX)]/[25p
24M(FX)] setting in [Record Setting] are converted by “PlayMemories Home” in
order to create an AVCHD recording 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, store your movies on a Blu-ray disc (page 182).
