Last Updated : 05-Feb-2013
Issue Number : 8201776800

Solution

High-definition movies can be down-converted to standard definition by one of the following methods.

Using the [Convert HD -> SD] (MPEG2 format) command on the menu or the <WEB> button, convert and copy movies in the built-in memory to a memory card.

Refer to Down-Converting Movies for Video-Sharing Web Sites (VIXIA HF G20 / LEGRIA HF G25) .

Using [PIXELA VideoBrowser] supplied with the camcorder, create a DVD in standard definition (DVD-Video format).

Refer to the instruction manual of [PIXELA VideoBrowser].

When connecting to a TV or a recorder, use the bundled STV-250N stereo video cable to output the analog video signal in standard definition.

Refer to Copying Recordings to an External Video Recorder.
