chapter 5.1, item (10)
chapter 5.5, item (24)
Problem: I have a lot of scenes in the Scene bin
and am having trouble nding the scenes that I
am looking for.
Solution: Be sure to rename the scenes in chap-
ters and sections when splitting or recording.
You can also sort the scenes in the scene bin. To
do this, delete a scene, select another, and then
click on the Undo button, causing the deleted
scene to be reinserted just after the selected
scene.
Problem: Sometimes I can't insert a transition
effect.
Solution: Transition effects cannot overlap! If
an effect has already been assigned to an entire
scene (can happen with very short scenes), then
it is not possible to insert another effect.
Problem: I have already recorded a lot of ma-
terial and would like to know how many more
minutes I can record.
Solution: The remaining time (available space
for video) is displayed in the "Recording" menu.
Problem: I've nished a project and would like to
start another. How do I start?
Solution: If you want to keep your video material
on the system, then you can start a new project
in menu "Project settings". Otherwise you can
choose the option "Delete", which after a con-
rmation request will delete all the data of your
current project.
Problem: I can't nd my project data!
Solution: Check the System settings screen.
Perhaps you have activated the wrong project
by accident.
ERROR MESSAGES
Problem: The crossed-out SmartMedia card
symbol appears on the screen.
Solution: This symbol means that you should
insert the installation SmartMedia card, because
the card currently in the drive is invalid.
Problem: The ambulance symbol and a number
code appear on the screen.
Solution: This symbol indicates a serious error
(e.g. defective hardware). In this case, contact
your dealer.
TURNING OFF
Problem: The machine won't turn all the way off
-- the red light always lit.
Solution: The machine is in stand-by mode mea-
ning that the red light is always on. This mode of
operation saves electricity if you use the machi-
ne often. If you don't plan on using your system
for an extended period of time, then you should
pull the power plug (after having turned off the
machine).
Problem: Is data lost if I pull the power plug for
an extended period of time?
Solution: No, your data is stored on the internal
hard drive. However, before pulling the plug
you should power-down the machine correctly
by pressing the power switch on the front of
the machine or by clicking on the "OFF" button
in the Main Menu screen. This also applies to
all other cables. Never disconnect a cable from
your system while the machine is operating!
Problem: The machine does not turn off right
away. It takes awhile.
Solution: This is normal behavior for your sys-
tem. Before the machine is actually turned off
the current project is automatically saved, and
this can last several seconds. Only then does the
machine actually turn off. Even if the shutdown
