Loop Record
Loop Record is similar to PRE-REC Disk.
Loop Record continuously records a series of video clips to
available disk space. When all available disk space is used, Loop
Record begins sequentially replacing the earliest clip with the
most recent.
• The size of the video clip depends on the length of the loop or
record mode.
Loops of 60 minutes or less are recorded in one-minute
clips.
Otherwise, loops are recorded in 2GB clips.
When the capacity of the disk is reached, one additional
clip is created. The size of the last clip depends on the
length of the loop i.e., one-minute or 2GB. The disk must
have at least 30 minutes of disk space available for this
functionality.
Saving Loop Record Clips
Press
STOP
during a record session.
The FS-100 stops recording and saves the current LOOP
RECORD session clips to a folder on the disk.
Snap Record
Use
Snap
to record individual frames. In Snap mode, pressing
Record captures individual frames. All the frames recorded in
the same session are stored in a single file.
• To start a new
SNAP
record session, place the unit in
STOP
between
SNAP
records.
• Snap Record is available only in DV modes of operation.
• Use Snap in
Local
,
Syncro Slave
, and
Tapeless
control modes.
• Removing power from the FS-100 in the midst of a
Snap
recording session causes the unit to return to
Normal
recording mode when it powers back up.
Another Method to Capture Single Frames
An alternative to Snap is EXT CTL FRAME. For more information see
EXT CTL OFF, Pause, Frame, File on page 60.
