Basic Operations

i

Press this button to shift between 2D/3D mode. Pressing this button in preview will determine whether the recorded file is 2D or 3D. Pressing this button in playback will let you see the 2D or 3D files stored in your camcorder or memory card. Note that 3D files cannot be recorded/viewed/deleted in 2D mode, and vice versa.

When recording or shooting in 2D mode, only the right lens is used for capturing image.
This product utilizes the “Parallax Barrier” 3D technology. The parallax barrier is a special layer placed in front of the LCD screen. In 3D mode, it allows each of your eye to see a different set of pixels on the screen (hence the 3D effect), and as a result the brightness of the screen will also seem to be halved in 3D mode.

Recording a video clip

1 Press the Record button ( ) to start the recording.
2 During recording, you can move the Joystick up/down ( ) to zoom in/out the image. You can also press the OK button ( ) to pause or resume the recording.

5 On your HDTV, select the HDMI input port where the HDMI cable is connected.
6 Switch your camcorder to Playback mode and start to play a le. For operation details please refer to the "Playback" section.
If your HDTV is 2D type, the 3D files output on your HDTV will be 2D "side-by-side" only.
If you want to experience 3D effect on your 2D HDTV, you need to convert the 3D files into red/cyan format files by installing and using the bundled software (TotalMedia HD Cam) and copy the converted files into the “DCIM\101DIR2D” folder in the memory card. Then output the playback to your HDTV and wear the red/cyan glasses to watch it. For more information please refer to the “Software Addendum” included in the package.

Using Software

Installing software on your PC

1 Connect the camcorder to your PC and power on the camcorder.
2 The installation wizard starts. Please wait for the installation wizard to complete the software installation.

After installation, the software installation wizard will not appear the next time you connect the camcorder to your PC.

Converting 3D files into 2D red/cyan

By converting 3D files into 2D red/cyan files, you can connect the 3D camcorder to a 2D TV with HDMI and watch 3D image with the red/cyan glasses.

In the case that the camcorder is protected for overwriting, please use a card reader for converting files.
1 Press the "Convert to Red/Cyan" button on the bottom of the software interface.

2 Drag the file(s) that you want to convert to the lower task bar. Then click on 'Next' and the conversion process will begin. Please save the files into folder: "DCIM\101DIR2D" of the memory card. The 3D photos will be renamed to PIRCXXXX; the 3D video will be renamed to VIRCXXXX (XXXX is the counting number).

DO NOT save the converted files into the “\DCIM\100DIR3D” folder, otherwise the files will not be played back correctly in red/cyan format.
3 Turn on the camcorder with the memory card inserted and connect to a 2D HDTV via the HDMI cable. Switch to 2D mode first and then enter playback mode by pressing the joystick ( ). The TV screen becomes dark for a few second before the thumbnails of the files appear on the display.
4 Put the red/cyan glasses on, browse the thumbnails in the index, and playback red/cyan converted files.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible cause Solution
I output 3D video/photo playback to my home HDTV. But the 3D effect does not work.	Your TV/display is 2D and therefore does not support the format of the 3D files.	Covert the 3D video/photo into red/cyan format. Then play and output the converted file on your 2D HDTV/display. You also need to wear the accessory red/cyan glasses.
I output 3D video/photo playback to my home 3D HDTV. But the 3D effect does not work.	The system of your 3D TV/display is not correctly set up to support the format of the 3D files.	Select “side-by-side” setting in your 3D HDTV/display to correctly display the 3D effect.
I play my 3D videos/photos on my 3D-featured PC/notebook. But the 3D effect does not work.	The PC/notebook does not support “side-by-side” 3D format or the system is not correctly set up.	1) If your 3D PC/notebook is “Nvidia 3D” compatible, you can set the TotalMedia HDCam program to support “Nvidia 3D” directly.2) If your PC/notebook is not “Nvidia 3D” compatible, you may consider installing “Nvidia 3D kit” to support the effect.3) You can download and install the 3D freeware “Stereoscopic Player”, and set up the software to support “side-by-side” 3D effect.
Flash occurs when I wear my Shutter Glasses (that comes with 3D HDTV/display) to watch 3D files.	You are watching 3D files under 50Hz or 60Hz fluorescent light.	Turn off the fluorescent light to avoid interference and then watch the 3D files.
