Music files transferred to the camcorder with the supplied software Music Transfer Utilities may not be used without permission from the copyright holder, except for cases permitted under applicable laws, such as for personal use. Make sure to follow applicable laws when using music files.

note:

• You can also add to the playlist just the video snapshot scenes you want to watch and arrange their playback order.
• When the memory is initialized, music files will be erased as well. Use the supplied software Music Transfer Utility to transfer music files from the supplied Music Data CD-ROM to the camcorder. For details, refer to the 'Music Transfer Utility Software Guide' (PDF file).

• When music files are transferred to the built-in memory (HF S10/HF S11 only) or to a memory card after repeatedly recording and deleting recordings (fragmented memory), the movies and background music track may not be played back correctly. In such case, we recommend saving your recordings on a computer, initializing the memory, transferring the music files and only then writing the video files back to the camcorder.
• If the USB cable is disconnected while transferring music files to the camcorder, it may not be possible to correctly play back those music tracks. Delete the music tracks from the camcorder, and transfer the music files again.
