• While writing back to the camcorder clips that were previously saved on the computer, please
observe the following precautions. Failing to do so may result in corrupted clips that cannot be played
back on the camcorder.
- Do not remove the CF card and do not remove the CF card reader from the computer.
- Do not open any of the CF card slot covers on the camcorder.
- Do not disconnect the USB cable.
- Do not turn off the camcorder or the computer.
• Initialize the CF card using the camcorder before writing back the clips to the CF card. If you initialize
the CF card using a computer or another device, you will not be able to use it for recording or
playback with the camcorder.
• When using a commercially available card reader, use of a UDMA-compatible card reader is
recommended.
• Depending on the system used (the computer's performance specifications, transfer rate of the CF
card, etc.), writing back clips can take some time.
• To be able to write back clips to the camcorder, power the camcorder using the compact power
adapter and only then connect it to the computer. Clips cannot be written back to the camcorder if it
was connected to the computer while it was powered only by a battery pack.
Use Shift + Click or Ctrl + Click to select multiple clips or click Edit > Select All to select all clips.
To write clips back onto the camcorder, connect the camcorder to the computer and select a CF
card in the camcorder.
The selected clips will be copied to the CF card.
Click Cancel to interrupt the operation.
You can also use the menu by clicking Edit > Copy and Edit > Paste.
