Edit film
At the top, you can see a preview screen of the film . At the top
right, you can see the title or name of the film . Below, some
time data: Old length corresponds to the length of the comple-
te recording . New length is the current length, according to the
editing marks set . You can see the two lengths differ – it is the
preset pre-roll and post recording time making this difference .
The position is where the current key point is located, more
about this in the next paragraphs .
Beneath the film is a time bar displaying the film graphically .
The single segments (usually bits and pieces from previous
and following TV shows) determine what is to be deleted .
As you already know, the first key point is automatically set .
You can recognise this key point by the arrow below the time
bar . Its position depends on the defined pre-roll time . The
grey/green segment to the left of the key point represents the
currently marked segment to be deleted – which still needs to
be confirmed .
You may notice that the Help page shows you some of the
key functions . Press the direction buttons to skip through the
film in 10 frame steps (back and forth) . The P+ and P- buttons
change the step size . Press the P+ button one time to change
the setting from frames to seconds, press again and chan-
ge seconds into minutes . The steps of ten and single steps
remain unchanged .
The more your archives are organized from the start, the easier
you will be able to find particular films later . Think about mea-
ningful terms and information for the available text fields .
Tip: If you rename an album to a name already used by ano-
ther album, the two albums will be reduced to one .
