SD memory cards The unit's frame memory data and system data can be stored on SD memory cards. Conversely, this data can be loaded from the SD memory cards to the unit. Frame memory data (still image data): The unit supports 24-bit (uncompressed) BMP (bitmap) and JPEG (baseline) is the only file formats. JPEG format files can be loaded, but they become BMP format files when they are stored from the unit to the SD memory card. This unit cannot resize the images so resize them appropriately using another device such as a personal computer before saving them on the SD memory card. <Applicable sizes> HD/1080i: 19201080, HD/720p: 1280720, SD/NTSC: 720487, SD/PAL: 720576 BMP files: If the sizes are different, the center of the images will be lined up. If the image is large, it will be cropped. If the image is small, the area around it will be filled in with a black border. JPEG files: Images in the sizes listed in "Applicable sizes" above can be loaded. The pixels of images in SD format are not square, so the aspect ratio will be different when the images are displayed on the computer and when they are imported into frame memory (with NTSC format, they will be vertically long). To keep the images true to their actual proportions, make sure the original size is 720540 pixels. If the images are in NTSC format, use images shrunk to 720487 pixels. If the images are in PAL format, use images enlarged to 720576 pixels. [. . . ] This function enables settings to be performed on the menu screens which are displayed in the monitor output.
