IMPORTANT
• If you have saved still image and/or moving image
data on SD Memory Cards by yourself using a PC, you
may not be able to play images unless you have con-
figured the folders correctly and named the folders
and files correctly. For further detail, refer to the next
page.
• When playing music using an SD card, play the SD
Audio files which were written on the card using SD-
Jukebox (option).
• If you have saved data on SD cards using “Panasonic
SD Multi AV Device”, for instance, which is available
as an optional accessory, the data can be played by
the unit straight way.
• Use SD card with a memory size of 512 MB or less.
Playable data formats on the SD-Card
CQ-VD7700U/VD7500U can treat the following data for-
mats.
Still Pictures: JPEG files taken on digital
cameras conforming to DCF standards.
(set down by the Japan Electronics and

Association.)
Motion pictures: MPEG4 files (ASF for-
mat) taken on a digital video camera or
SD Multi AV Device.
Notes:
• If the file list screen contains 7 or more
files, press [}], [{],
[]] or [[] to
scroll to the next (or previous)
page.
• When MPEG4 moving pictures are
played back, mosaic-like patterns may occur or frames
may be dropped during scenes with fast-moving subjects.
This is normal and not a sign of trouble.
Music (Audio files): MP3 and AAC audio files recorded with
“Panasonic Media Manager” or “SD-Jukebox” software
included with Panasonic SD Multi AV Device and SD Audio
Player.
Notes:
• SD audio files written using a function other than SD-
Jukebox may not be recognized.
• MP3 audio files cannot be played. (However, this does
not apply to MP3 files that were written using SD-
Jukebox for use as SD audio files.)
• This unit can neither record nor erase the data.
• Titles and names of the artists may not always appear on
the display.
• If there are multiple numbers of still
pictures that are tied in with SD-
Jukebox, only the first still picture is
displayed.
• It may not be possible for the unit to
play back some kind of still pictures
even when they are tied in with SD-
Jukebox.
Voice: G.726 files recorded on a digital video camera or SD
Multi AV Device.
Notes:
• Some files are not compatible with this unit and can not be
played back. For example: Motion picture files recorded
using a digital still camera with motion picture function, IC
recorder voice files etc.
• Under certain condition, some files may not be played back
even if these are compatible ones.
How to record play data on SD-Cards
❒ Personal Computer
• You can copy Still pictures and Motion pictures to your
SD-Card by connecting it to a computer with a USB SD-
Card Reader/Writer (BN-SDCAP, option) or PC card adapter
(BN-SDABP, option) When recording to an SD-Card on a
computer. (Please refer to the “IMPORTANT” statement
above.)
• If you have attached still pictures to an audio file (using
SD-Jukebox Ver.3.0 or later, option) the unit can also show
the first of these pictures.
Treatments of SD-Card
❒ Other equipment (example: Digital still camera, IC Voice Recorder, Digital Camcorder)
The SD-Card recorded by some certain equipment (see previous page) can be played back on this unit without special
procedures. This equipment creates folders and files in the following way:
DCIM
100CDPFP
PRL001
SD_VIDEO
SD_VC100
SD_VOICE
SD_AUDIO
root
JPEG files
MPEG4 files
Voice files
Music files
• SD_VOICE and SD_AUDIO are hidden folders created when you record
voice or audio files, and play automatically on other equipment.
This unit needs these folders on an SD-Card to play the files. Do not delete
them on your computer.
• “DCIM”, “SD_VIDEO”, “SD_VOICE” and “SD_AUDIO” are necessary to play
files but have no effect on operation.
• You may be unable to play some files due to the origin of the copy, or the
naming of folders and files.
❒ Naming rule for the recoding files on SD-Cards.

Example: Example:
IMGA 0001.JPG MOL 001.ASF
