Some cameras allow the users to split the memory into several blocks.
Before recording material on the hypermotion camera, you need to specify
how many memory blocks you want to use (1, 2, 3 or 4 blocks). By default,
only one memory block is defined.
When using more than one memory block, the blocks are considered as
individual units. In other words you have to manually shift from one block to
the other to continue recording on the next block. Cue points are pre-rolls
can only be used on a single-block memory.
