5. ediTing yOur reCOrdings

• Video files recorded with the ARCHOS DVR Station can be edited by deleting the sec-
tions you do not wish included. The editing you can do is either cropping or cutting of
particular segments of the video file.
• You will mark a segment of your video file, and then you will tell the ARCHOS to de-
lete everything except the marked segment or to delete the marked segment from the
video file. These operations can be done multiple times on the same video file.
• Once finished, you will have the option to save the edit marks with the video or to
write a new video file. If you save your file with edit marks, you can always go back
and change your edits at another time. The actual video information is not deleted. On
the other hand, you can write a new file which will only include the video parts that
you specified in the edit session. This file will be smaller but you can never un-edit it.
