Video cannot be saved to these folders. • You cannot save only audio data. • When extracting a time range that contains different video formats (such as JPEG and H.264), divide the range by format and save each video segment individually. • When the data size of video being extracted reaches 2 GB, extraction will stop and the video extracted to that point will be saved, even if the specified end time has not been reached. • Play back the .mov file to check if the specified length of video was saved. • Video that exceeds 2 GB in size cannot be saved. Adjust the video extraction range so that the data size does not exceed 2 GB. You can calculate the data size using the Required Disk Space Calculator or Data Size and Bit Rate Estimates table found on the Canon website. • Block noise may appear when a video recorded in H.264 and saved in .mov format is paused during playback using QuickTime. • Initially, noise may be present when playing back extracted video recordings that include audio. 6 Note Extracted video is saved in QuickTime format (with the .mov file extension) and can be played with QuickTime (or other players that support the .mov file type).
