QuestionCan you play all files continuously? Like if there were ten different individual scenes that were started & stopped, would you have to play each scene individually on the TV or is there a way to make them play in order, on their own, like as a movie?
Asked 6 years ago by Jennifer.
- Answer In theory, all of the pieces could be stitched together through the app or software. Unfortunately, the camera is too old to use with the software available on sony..com and there appears to be no downloadable older versions.

QuestionI have an older Sony HDR-SR11 camcorder that I used as a Webcam. It worked great with my AVerMedia C027 PCIe HD Capture Device. Unfortunately I dropped it and now the video is out of wack. I'm due for a new one anyway. So can I use this model?
Asked 6 years ago by Ray.
- Answer I bought this for my grandson because he likes to edit for special effects and upload to YouTube. The biggest issue is you cannot download video directly to iPad. You must download to a laptop and transfer through iTunes, or buy special cables/ lighthing cords to go direct to ipad, and even that is not guaranteed to work. A big pain. Takes nice video, though.

QuestionIs this camera good for indoor sports recording?
Asked 6 years ago by Moore.
- Answer It will get the job done, but the quality isn't very good. If you're recording indoor sports, the lighting might not be good enough, but it really depends on what kind of quality you're looking for.
