Clip Management: Thumbnail and Clip Management

Thumbnail and Clip Management

This unit provides a thumbnail screen for managing clips. A 

clip is a single data item that contains video, audio, metadata 

and other additional information. Normally, a clip is one shot 

generated from the start of recording until recording stops. 

However, when a shot spans multiple P2 cards, the video on 

each card is handled as an independent clip. 

The thumbnail screen shows a list of thumbnails. Each 

thumbnail, which is the first frame of each clip, represents that 

clip. These thumbnails allow you check and also perform the 

following clip management operations. 

• Play back, delete and repair clips

• Insert text memos in clips

• Check and delete text memos

• Display and delete markers

• Format P2 cards

• Show clip property

• Show P2 card status

◆ NOTE:

• Thumbnails are generated from part of the captured video and 

therefore appear rougher than the actual video. 

• Thumbnail screens are output also via the VIDEO MONITOR 

connector but may run off the screen depending on the type of 

monitor that is connected.
