The control bar displayed in conjunction with the clip’s playback can be used to designate IN/OUT points for parts to be deleted. During playback, when the control bar’s IN button is pressed, that part of the clip preceding that point will be memorized as a cut point.

Similarly, pressing the OUT button will result the memorization of that portion of the video image following that point as a cut point. Attempts to input reversed IN/OUT points will be ignored.

Pressing the SAVE button will initiate trimming edit, and when completed, the screen will return to the Function Menu. Pressing the CANCEL button will cause the screen to return to the Function Menu without completing the edit.

Note 1:

IN/OUT points can be set only at the beginning of a group of pictures (GOP; in 15 frame units (NTSC), 12 frame units (PAL)).

Trimming edit allows you to save the edited result either to the original clip or to a new clip. The size of a new clip that can be selected for trimming is limited by hard disk size. When saving by overwriting previous files, clips up to “4.7GB + HDD available space” can be created.

The symbol “+” is prefixed to the clip name when saved to a new clip. If, as a result of affixing the “+”, the clip name exceeds 32 single-byte characters, the final character of the name will automatically be deleted so as to keep the name within the 32- character limit.

If the pre-edit clip was saved as a title, the post-edit clip will be entered as the title instead. If the pre-edit clip was not saved as a title, the post-edit clip will not be saved as a title.

If required, add a title as described in “Title Order Edit” on page 65.
