On a Personal Computer
About the supplied software
ªAbout the supplied software
The SD Video Camera comes with SD-Jukebox Ver.4, SD-MovieStage Ver.2.5, and a USB 
driver to allow the SD Video Camera to be used on a personal computer. By using these 
software packages, you can record high-quality music which can be played back in the 
[AUDIO] mode of the SD Video Camera (SD-Jukebox Ver.4), arrange the pictures on a 
Memory Card, and cut and edit moving pictures (SD-MovieStage Ver.2.5). Please read the 
PDF-format instructions installed with the software for how to use the software. These 
Operating Instructions describe only how to install and start up the software and how to 
connect the SD Video Camera to a personal computer. Install the USB driver before 
connecting the SD Video Camera to a personal computer.
≥While every attempt is made to create software that will operate properly in most personal 
computers, previously installed software and unique hardware in the PC may occasionally 
cause an operating problem.
≥USB Driver, SD-MovieStage Ver.2.5 and SD-Jukebox Ver.4 cannot be used on Microsoft 
Windows 3.1, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT and Macintosh.
≥Operation on an upgraded OS is not guaranteed.
≥Operation on an OS other than the one pre-installed is not guaranteed.
≥Multi-boot environments are not supported.
≥Only users having system administrator (Administrator) authority can use these software 
applications.
≥The software is available in English.
≥Even if you operate a personal computer in French, the application and PDF manual 
installed is the English version. Please refer to the PDF manual of the French version in 
the supplied CD-ROM.
≥A USB hub or USB card used for connection does not guarantee a normal operation. Use 
the attached USB cable for direct connection to the personal computer.
SD-Jukebox incorporates copyright protection technology using encryption technology in 
order to protect copyrights, to ensure the healthy development of music culture, and to 
protect the rights of valid purchasers.
The following restrictions are therefore applied:
≥SD-Jukebox records music data in encrypted form onto your hard disk drive. Encrypted 
music cannot be moved/copied to other folders, drives, and other personal computers 
for use.
≥Unique information pertaining to your personal computer’s processor and hard disk drive 
is used in the encryption process. Therefore, if either the processor or hard disk drive is 
replaced, previously created music data will no longer be available for use.
≥SD-Jukebox cannot play or record music CDs that do not have a   mark on the disc 
label.

Constructing a Folder when 
the Memor y Card is used 
with a PC
≥When the Memory Card with data recorded by the 
SD Video Camera is inserted into a personal 
computer, folders will be displayed as in the figure. 
(When a file name and a folder name are changed 
using the Explorer etc. on personal computers, there 
is a case where it becomes impossible for the SD 
Video Camera to read data on this Memory Card.)
≥Use the SD-MovieStage Ver.2.5 for operating files in 
the Memory Card.
[DCIM]: The images (IMGA0001.JPG etc.) in 
this folder are recorded in the JPEG 
format. ([100-0001] or similar 
indication is displayed on the SD 
Video Camera.)
[MISC]: Files in which DPOF Data has been 
set to the image are in this folder.
Slide show data created by 
SD-MovieStage Ver.2.5 are in this 
folder. (AUTPLAY0.MRK etc.)
[SD_AUDIO]: Folder in which the music data (e.g., 
AOB001.SA1) files recorded by the

accessory) are stored.
[SD_VIDEO]: MPEG4 moving picture is recorded in 
ASF format (MOL001.ASF etc.). It can
