your recorded video.
After entering the menu, a requester appears,
allowing you to select the film that is to be
trimmed. After selecting, the trim menu appears:
In the background, you can see the first frame of
the footage. Use the key arrow up to select the
function In (for the In-point). The selection turns
red.
(If there is still material to be played back, a
fitting screen text/question will appear asking
you if the playback is to be stopped.)
Now you can use the right arrow key to navigate
through the video in 0,5 second steps in order to
find the right position for the start of your video.
Once you have found the first frame, press the
Ok key.
Next, press the arrow down key to select the
item Out-Point. You should now see the very
last frame of your video. Use the left arrow key
to select the desired position for the end of the
video and confirm with the Ok key.
To exit the menu, select the Exit function and
press Ok to confirm and use the trim points.
In the sequent playback/sending, the video will
be played with the confirmed In and Out points.
Note: The recording is not actually cut, but

set the anew.
7.7 The Preference Menu
In this menu, you can use the arrow up and
down keys to select either `De-Interlaced´ or
`Loop´.
If you select ´De-Interlaced´, you can now further
determine between Interlaced and De-Interlaced
using the left and right arrow keys.
The `Interlaced´ mode plays back the video
with no changes at 25 or 30 frames (Hz) on
the monitor. During movements, interlacing
artefacts looking like a comb-effect.
The `De-Interlaced´ mode removes these
`combed line effects´ and the video is played at
double the frame rate (see Super De-interlacing
Chapter 8).
Activating the `Loop´ function allows you to
select between Loop and Single-Play. Loop plays
films in a loop, meaning that they are repeated
after ending. Single-Play stops playback once
the film ends and returns the system to the
normal operating status (for example live feed, if
a camera is connected).
