Selecting the Playback Starting Point

from a certain point. You can use the movie timeline to break the scene to segments at fixed time intervals rang-

ing from 6 seconds to 6 minutes. If you recorded movies with the Face Detection function ( 62) activated, you can display the scene divided into segments every time the camcorder registered a change in the main subject of the scene.
