If there are recordings on the card, the first one available appears with details about it on the
screen. Pressing the UP and DOWN keys brings up details about other recordings, moving
through the list of all available. The top line displays RECORDING N / N, where the first number
in place of N states the position in the list the screen is currently showing, and the second
number says how many recordings there are on the card.
The screen shows the directory path and file name of the recording. The third letter of the file
name indicates, by either N or P, whether the recording is NTSC or PAL.
Below the file name is shown the size of the file in megabytes. Below that are shown the date and
time (only accurate to two seconds, the resolution of the file system time stamps) of when the
recording was started and when it was ended.
On the bottom line of the LCD, above the function keys, are labels for actions which can be taken
on the currently displayed recording. Over the THREE key is "Delete". Pressing the THREE key
is used to remove the recording from the Compact Flash card. When the key for Delete is
pressed, the screen will change to ask the question "DELETE RECORDING?". To complete the
removal process, the TWO key must be pressed, which has "Confirm" displayed above it on the
LCD. When the Confirm screen is up, pressing the ESCAPE key returns the recording view to
normal without removing the recording. Pressing the MENU key returns to the Recording Standby
condition without removing the recording.
While viewing the recordings list, pressing the MENU key returns to the Recording Standby
condition. Pressing ESCAPE returns to the TOP menu.
When viewing a recording in the list, over the ONE key is "Play". Pressing the key for Play starts
playback of the selected recording. The video output is turned on for playback. During playback,
the SELECT key can be pressed to pause playback. Pause takes a second or two to take effect.
The playback can be continued by pressing SELECT again. The top of the LCD will display either
PLAYING or PAUSED during playback.
During playback of videos, you will see an indicator at the top that is moving. Pressing the left or
right cursor keys will rewind or fast-forward the video by 3X, 15X, or 60X speed. If you pressed
the right direction key and the video is not fast-forwarding by 3X, pressing the left direction key
will put the unit back into normal play mode.
When the end of the recording is reached, the video and audio outputs will turn off, and the
normal recording list view of the recording returns.
To stop playback before the end of the recording, playback must be paused by pressing the
SELECT key. When playback is paused, pressing the MENU key returns to the Recording
Standby condition. Pressing ESCAPE returns to the recordings List view.
