Capturing Video Snapshot Scenes from a Movie

Solution

    Using video snapshot mode, you can capture 2, 4, or 8 seconds short scenes (video snapshot scenes) that you can playback with a background music that is different from the actual recorded sound. Please refer to What is the Video Snapshot function? for details.

    You can capture video snapshot scenes from a previously recorded scene.

    1. Press < > to switch to movie playback mode.



    2. Touch [ ], select the built-in memory, Card A, or Card B, and then select [ Original ] or [ Playlist ] to display the index screen.



    3. Play back the desired scene.



    4. Press < START/STOP > to capture the video snapshot scene.
    • During playback, a movie is copied and it is then converted into a video snapshot scene.
    • When the camcorder stops recording, the screen will momentarily turn black as if a camera shutter had released.





    5. Touch [ ] to return to the index screen.

    CAUTION
    • 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.
    NOTE
    • 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.
