Creating a Blu-ray disc
You can create a Blu-ray disc with a high 
definition image quality (HD) movie 
previously imported to a computer 
(p. 43). 
To create a Blu-ray disc, the BD Add-on 
Software for “PMB” must be installed. 
Click [BD Add-on Software] on the 
installation screen of “PMB,” and install 
this plug-in according to the on-screen 
instructions.
Connect your computer to the internet 
when you install [BD Add-on Software].
Place an unused Blu-ray disc in the disc 
drive, and click    [Create Blu-ray 
Disc (HD)] in step 4 of “Creating an 
AVCHD disc
” (p. 44). Other procedures 
are the same as that for creating an 
AVCHD disc.
Your computer must support the creation of 
Blu-ray discs.
BD-R (unrewritable) and BD-RE 
(rewritable) media are available for creating 
Blu-ray discs. You cannot add contents to 
either type of disc after creating the disc.
Creating a standard 
definition image 
quality (STD) disc 
that can be played on 
ordinary DVD players
You can create a standard definition image 
quality (STD) disc by selecting movies 
previously imported to your computer 
(p. 43).
Notes
You may select high definition image quality 
(HD) movies as sources. However, image 
quality is converted from high definition (HD) 
to standard definition (STD). It will take a 
longer time for converting the image quality of 
the movies than it took to actually record the 
movies.
