Notes on Clips
The maximum file size for a clip is 43 GB for
UDF, 4 GB for FAT in HD Mode, and 2 GB for
FAT in SD Mode. If you continue recording for
an extended period, recorded materials may be
segmented into multiple files, depending on the
file size (the maximum number of partitions is
99). The camcorder regards continuous
recording as one clip even if it has been
segmented into multiple files.
A long clip can be recorded crossing over two
memory cards in slot A and B.
When you copy recorded clips to a hard disk,
etc., via computer, it is recommended to use the
dedicated application software, which you need
to download, to maintain the continuity of
recorded materials. For details, see "About
downloading the software" in operating
instructions (PDF).
Note
If copying is done using Explorer (Windows) or
Finder (MAC), the continuity and relationships of
recorded materials may not be maintained.
Maximum duration of a clip
The maximum clip length is 24 hours for FAT
(MP4 or AVI) and 6 hours for UDF (MXF).
If you exceed the maximum clip length, a new
clip will be automatically created. You can
check the new clip on the thumbnail screen.
