[FUNC.] 8 [MENU] 8 8 8 [Recording Mode] 8 Desired recording mode 8 [a] NOTES • Movies recorded in MXP mode cannot be saved on AVCHD discs. Use an external Blu-ray Disc recorder to copy MXP movies onto Blu-ray discs or use the supplied software VideoBrowser to create AVCHD discs*. • The camcorder uses a variable bit rate (VBR) to encode video so the actual recording times will vary depending on the content of the scenes. • The camcorder retains the last setting used even if you set the cam- corder to mode. * MXP scenes will be converted to an image quality similar to that of FXP scenes.
