2.0 SLOW MOTION MODES
FireStore allows you to play clips at slower
than real time speeds. It is possible to
playback NTSC clips at 15 frames per second
(FPS), 10 FPS, 6FPS, 5FPS, 3FPS, 2FPS and
1 FPS. PAL clips can be played back at
12FPS, 6FPS, 5FPS, 4FPS, 3FPS, 2FPS and
1FPS. To access the slow motion mode, select
the particular clip you would like to play (it is
also possible to play a loop all, loop clip or
play all sequence at slower than real time
speeds). Start playback by pressing
FireStore’s (PLAY) button. Once
playing, hold down the (SHIFT/ALT)
button for two seconds (the button will flash
when in ALT mode). Then press the RW
button once. You will notice the display

will slow down playback by the increments
mentioned above until it reaches 1FPS. It is
possible at any time to increase the playback
speed by pressing the FF button. It will
increase by one increment forward (e.g. if you
are at 6FPS, playback will increase to 10FPS).
To exit this mode, simply press FF until
playback reaches normal play again or exit
by pressing the SHIFT/ALT mode button once
(the button will stop flashing when exited) and
press the Play button again.
3.0 NEW FILE FORMATS
FireStore now features three new file formats,
Matrox, QuickTime and Avid DV OMF. To set
either of these formats (as well as others),
hold down the
(MODE) button for two seconds and
the setup screen will appear. By pressing the
(MODE) button, cycle through until
you see the "REC FILE TYPE" screen. The
different file formats that are available are :
RawDV, AVI Type 1, AVI Type 2, AVI Type 2C
(Canopus), Matrox AVI, QuickTime and Avid
DV OMF. Select the file format you wish to
use. Once set, that file format will remain
until it is changed, even if the power is cycled.
3.1 Matrox
The Matrox file format is designed for use
with the Matrox RT2000, RT2500, DigiSuite
DTV and DigiSuite LX applications with
Adobe Premiere. The Matrox file format is
unique on FireStore in that it creates two files
simultaneously; an AVI2 video file and a
separate .WAV audio file. On the computer's
desktop, the file will look like this...
On FireStore, both the video file (AVI2) and the
audio file (.WAV) appear as one track. If you
delete a Matrox file, FireStore will delete both
the audio and video portion at the same time.
NOTE: The Matrox file format is not for use
with the Matrox RTMac. Use either AVI 2 or
QuickTime for Matrox RTMac based
applications.
