Capturing a Video Snapshot Scene

NOTES

•A video snapshot scene can be captured only during playback; it cannot be captured during playback pause mode.

•The captured video snapshot scene is saved to the same memory that contains the source scene.

•Video snapshot scenes cannot be captured from any of the following types of scenes.

-Scenes shorter than 1 second.

-Scenes that were edited using the supplied software VideoBrowser and were then transferred back to the camcorder.

•When the source scene is itself a video snapshot scene, you may not be able to capture a video snapshot scene depending on the length of the source scene and the length currently selected for video snapshot scenes.

•When you start capturing a video snapshot scene less than 1 second from the end of the scene, the video snapshot scene will be captured starting from the beginning of the following scene.

•During the playback of video snapshot scenes captured from a previously recorded movie, you may notice some anomalies in the picture/sound at the point where the playback switches to a new scene.
