Using the Recorder

Uploading video clips and still photos to a computer
There are two ways to get files from the SDHC card in the POV.HD onto a personal computer.
1. Remove the SDHC card from the POV.HD recorder and use a flash card reader attached to your
computer.
2. Connect the POV.HD recorder to a USB port on your computer using the USB cable provided with the
POV.HD, and upload the files directly to the computer from the recorder.
When
uploading
files
by
either
method,
you
need
to
be
aware
of
the
folder
structure
used
by
the
POV.HD.
The
example
below
shows
this
structure.
• POV_HD is the volume label for the SDHC card containing the files. This volume label is on the
SDHC
card
provided
with
the
POV.HD.
If
you
format
that
card
or
use
a
different
card,
the
volume
label
will
appear
as
“Unknown
Device”,
unless
you
have
set
the
volume
label
to
some
other
text
using
a
computer.
• DCIM
is
the
name
of
the
directory
in
which
all
video
and
still
photos
are
stored.
• tags
is
the
name
of
the
subdirectory
in
which
tag
clips
created
using
Save
Tags
are
stored.

the

Details about POV.HD file naming conventions are given in
File Names on the POV.HD
, above.
Note:
This
illustration
shows
the
file
structure.
The
order
of
the
files
in
each
folder
depends
on
the
operating
system
and
your
preference
settings.
Upload and/or delete files using a flash memory card reader:
• Make sure the POV.HD is not recording video. Removing the SDHC card while recording will cause
the
entire
clip
to
be
corrupted.
When
the
recorder
is
powered
down
and
then
powered
back
up,
the
internal
logic
will
discover
the
corrupted
clip
and
attempt
to
repair
it,
but
a
successful
repair
is
not
guaranteed.
The
best
policy
is
to
be
sure
you’re
not
recording
when
you
remove
the
SDHC
card.
• Remove
the
SDHC
card
from
the
recorder
and
put
it
into
the
card
reader.
• Use
the
regular
procedures
for
uploading
and/or
deleting
files
using
your
reader.
• When
you
have
finished,
remove
the
SDHC
card
from
the
reader
and
reinstall
it
in
the
recorder.
• Note:
If
you
are
using
a
Mac,
when
you
delete
files,
you
must
be
certain
to
also
empty
the
trash.
On
a
Mac
deleted
files
are
left
in
place
and
marked
as
being
in
the
trash.
Empty
Trash
is
required
to
physically
remove
the
files
from
the
SDHC
card.
