How to handle data recorded on SD Memory Card Data recorded in AVCHD format offers excellent compatibility with computers due to the file type, but since this format includes not only video and audio data, but also a variety of important information, the folder structure will consist of file associations as illustrated in the diagram on the right. If even part of this information is modified or deleted, the data may no longer be recognized as AVCHD data, or the memory card may not longer be able to be used with AVCHD devices. To prevent the loss of information when copying data from the SD Memory Card to a computer, or when copying data stored on a computer back onto the SD Memory Card, be sure to use the AVCCAM Viewer specialist software, which can be downloaded from the following website.
