    NOTE In case of displaying movie pictures, 
    1) If your DSC supports SD card/MMC, insert the card to the monitor directly rather than USB.
    2) If your DSC is PictBridge-compatible and has a function to switch between PTP and Mass Storage connection, 
    change your setting to Mass Storage and then connect to Photo Input terminal so that it can be available on 
    both Still and Movie pictures. PTP connection can display still pictures but not movie pictures.
    3) 
    If your DSC does not support SD card / MMC or Mass Storage connection, use USB card reader to connect 
    with Photo Input terminal. Please note that we do not guarantee all DSC can make either or both Mass Storage 
    and USB card reader connection.
     Comparing to movie pictures through SD card/MMC, the movie pictures using USB might have lower
