Chapter 1 Overview
If you press this button when the thumbnail screen is
displayed, the duration of the selected clip is divided into
12, and the first frame of each of the divisions is shown in
a further thumbnail display (expand function). Each time
you press the button, the division is repeated (to a
maximum of three times, with 1728 divisions). Hold down
the SHIFT button and press this button to step back
through the division process.

chapter) button
Each time this button is pressed, the counter display
section changes as follows. This setting is activated only

time.

cueing up long clips.
