∫ If AVCHD scenes do not change smoothly when played back on 
another device
The images may be still for several seconds at the joins between the scenes if the following 
operations are performed when multiple scenes have been continuously played back using 
another unit.
≥ Just how smoothly the scenes will be played back depends on the playback unit. 
Depending on the unit used, the images may stop moving and become still for a moment 
even when none of the following conditions are applicable.
≥ A continuous recording of motion picture data that exceeds 4 GB may momentarily stop at 
every 4 GB of data when played back with another device.
≥ It may not play back smoothly when the editing of scenes was done with the HD Writer LE 
1.0, but it will play back smoothly if you set the seamless settings in the HD Writer LE 1.0. 
Refer to the operating instructions for the HD Writer LE 1.0.
