necessary.

want to copy.
Insert a finalized disc.
2 Computer: Insert a standard-size
(12 cm) DVD disc into the DVD
drive.

a DVD-RW disc for the copy as well.
Otherwise, you can use either a
DVD-RW or a brand new DVD-R
disc.
3 Click [Copy to Disc].
High-definition discs created or copied
using Corel software can be played back
only with AVCHD-compatible DVD
players. Do not insert such discs into a

Making Copies to Share with Family
and Friends
Copy your discs and at the same time
convert discs recorded in HD quality or
in VR mode to DVD-VIDEO
specifications. This ensures that the
copies can be played back with most
DVD players, making this option very
convenient when you want to give
away copies of your disc to family and
friends without worrying about the
compatibility of their DVD players.

device and click [Next].

successfully, click [OK].
IMPORTANT
If a folder on an external hard disk drive is
selected, the message “Delayed Write
Failed” may appear and you may not be
able to save the files.
NOTES
• The file name of scenes saved on the

recordings. For example, the file name
of a recording made around 9 p.m. on
November 3 will be:
20071103212030.m
20071103212030.m
YYYYMMDDhhmmss
• Unless you select a different folder in
step 3, scenes will be saved in folders
that reflect the date of recording under
the My Videos folder in the My
Documents folder.
The exact path is different for each
system but a typical path for the scene
on the previous example would be:
C:\Documents and Settings\
[User name]\My Documents\
My Videos\20071103
(HD scene)
(SD scene)

• For Windows Vista users: Depending on
the configuration of your computer,

whether the Windows Aero graphic
interface is activated or not. If you
experience some anomalies during
playback even though your computer
complies with the system requirements,
try turning the Windows Aero function
on or off.
• Playback quality may be affected by
the power saving mode of the operating
system or the video card. If you are
using a laptop computer, try connecting
it directly to a power outlet.
• This program cannot be used to play
back CPRM-protected discs.
IF A DISC CREATED WITH DVD
M
OVIEFACTORY SE CANNOT BE PLAYED
BACK CORRECTLY
• Depending on the type of disc and the
configuration of your computer, the
processor may be overloaded and you
may notice some anomalies such as
video stuttering or audio drop-outs.
Playback of discs recorded in high
definition requires higher CPU
resources. Close all running programs
before starting the playback.
• Regarding the playback of AVCHD discs:
You can play back discs recorded using
this camcorder and discs created using
GuideMenu or DVD MovieFactory SE.
Correct playback cannot be guaranteed
when playing back AVCHD discs
recorded or created using other
devices/software.
• Correct playback of AVCHD discs
created using the supplied software
cannot be guaranteed for all AVCHDcompatible devices.
If you play back a high-definition disc
created with DVD MovieFactory SE on
an external AVCHD-compatible DVD
device you may notice that the video
freezes for a few seconds between

following procedure to create a new
disc where all video is read as one
continuous scene.
1 After adding the scenes you want
to include in the disc, select the
first scene.

MyDVD for Canon installed in your
computer, DVD MovieFactory SE or
WinDVD SE may not work correctly. In
such case, follow the procedure below
