to toggle
widescreen mode.
NOTE: The clip aspect ratio cannot be changed
once the clip is recorded. If you want to change the
clip’s aspect ratio attribute you must re-record the
clip.
Verify widescreen mode setting.
This setting only applies to SD clips. If the
SD video source is in widescreen format,
select widescreen mode for the recorder.
This attribute is saved with the clip. (720p
and 1080i clips are always recorded in
widescreen, whether this is selected or not.)
In the Recorder pane, select the
Meter bar
button.
Adjust audio level using the graphical faders. Select
the Meter bar button again to return to Recorder view.

compression settings.
Verify video compression settings.
Choosing a video compression setting is a
trade-off between image quality and storage
capacity. Higher video quality produces
larger files which take up more storage
space and take longer to transfer to external
devices.
