8VIDEO - Editing Video Files
Video files recorded by the AV400 (not internet files) can be modified by deleting the sections you do not wish included. The editing you can do is either cropping or cutting of particular segments of the video file. You will mark a segment of your video file, and then you will tell the AV400 to CROP it out (delete everything except the marked segment) or to CUT it out (delete the marked segment from the video file). These operations can be done multiple times on the same video file. Once finished, you will have the option to save the edit marks with the video or to write a new video file. If you save your file with edit marks, you can always go back and change your edits at another time. The actual video information is not deleted. On the other hand, you can write a new file which will only include the video parts that you specified in the edit session. This file will be smaller but you can never

Example 1: You have recorded a music video program and would like to keep one single music presentation. The rest of the television recording you do not care to keep. In this case, you would set a Start mark (a) at the beginning of the desired segment, and an End mark (b) at the end of the desired segment. You would then choose CROP which would then delete everything except the designated section.

Example 2: You have recorded a television program but would like to remove certain sections before the program started, parts during the program, and the program afterwards because you had recorded a little extra. In this case, you would make a Start mark (a) at time 00:00 and then forward to the end of what you want to delete and make your End mark (b), and choose CUT.
