I film hockey games. I start&amp; stop all game long. When I download the video it comes in 90+ individual clips. Is there a way to make 1 long clip?

Hi Mike G., Yes, you can combine the clips into one video. Please contact us at socialsupport@am.sony.com so we can assist you. Thanks. Mitch

Yes starting and stopping will result in a new file. This allows you to name each scene for easier production, remember you want short scenes 10-12 seconds. You can always piece together in your editor software and transition to a new scene. The other option is to keep the camera filming and cut out the section you don't want, but this waste battery and storage space.

Thank you.Basically, the problem I got is the pause between the clips when I write them to a DVD. So, I joined them (and the pause problom is solved) and tried to fit it to a 4.7 GB (which apparently holds 4.38GB data). And if the total size is less than 4.38GB, I could write the DVD. Else, I had to separate the single cip (which I joined before) and remove some of the clips and see how many are getting fit in 4.38GB. I think I could write it. Of course, I have to write a second DVD for rest of the clips. Thank you

The longest clip I've recorded was around 20 minutes. I never received any warning about a time limit. I've always figured that it was based on the battery life and storage space in my SD Card, which it does tell you how much time is left given those two factors.

NO time lapse and it can record up to 29 minutes per clip, but 29 is NOT the total limit for taking videos. Once you're done with the first 29 minutes, you can just start another one. I did 50 minutes of video yesterday without issues.

Ok, someone will probably give a better answer than me, but, assuming I understand the question: Camera can be set for either circular recording or not. Circular means it will record until the memory card is full, then start overwriting the files from the beginning. If Circular is "off", it will just fill up the memory card and stop. HOWEVER, it doesn't just record "one big file". It records 10, 15, or 20 minute files (user selectable), one after another. So, say you have it running continuous, 15 minute file size. It will record a 15 minute file, then immediately record another 15 minute file, and so on. Depending on resolution and memory card size, you will end up with dozens (or potentially hundreds) of sequential 10 to 20 minute long video files. Actually really handy, just find the one that has the information you want on it, rename it and save it. Easy peasy. It will keep recording files until the memory card is full (up to 64 hours continuous on a 64 gig card, depending on resolution, etc), then it will start recording over the oldest files. Does that make sense? It is a cool little videocam, and it can be configured pretty extensively. Hope that helps.

for me, a 3 minute clip at 1080p takes about 340 MB of space so you're looking at around 4.5 hours of video with 32 GB of storage before it starts recording over the oldest file.

Just plug it into your computer and download the software that comes with it. This is the biggest downside I've found with the bloggie. You have to use their software to send clips to family and friends. I wasn't crazy about their software program. I did manage to copy and paste the clips to another program after downloading to the bloggie software and sent out videos that way. It was just another step and made the process longer.

That makes sense..... I've just always rendered my movies with 3 minute chapter points. It appears that this user is using each clip as a chapter marker. They could divide the clips into catagories creating a title for each and that would bring down the chapter count allowing the app to burn the DVD.

Is yours only recording a single 3 minute clip/frame/segment or a number of them? Check your settings. I have mine set for 5 minute frames/segments etc. It records continuously for several hours (32GB) but when I down load the card the entire recording is appears in 5 minute segments. Makes it easier to find a spot in the journey. ??????

I do a lot of recording that is longer than 30 minutes on my Pan-AG-HMC40P using a 32GB memory card. It also breaks the data according to size of data. Don't know if there is a setting to extend the data size or time of recording.

yes. There is a selection on the bottom left of the screen to instantly save the clip.

Well it really depends on the situation and what you are recording. For me, the two recording modes I mostly use is either 1080p at 30 frames per second, or 720p at 60 frames per second. If you are recording sports, action, or anything where the subject moves a lot, I suggest record it in 720p 60fps because the playback will be a lot smoother since it is capturing 60 action frames within a second. With this mode, you can create a really smooth slow-mo effect through your computer. Try to YouTube "Slow motion 60 fps" and you'll see what I mean. I use 1080p for anything else including under water. Sometimes when my battery is low or my memory is almost filled up, I switch it to WVGA to conserve. Hope this helps!

You would need some sort of movie software to combine the clips. I have iMovie and Premier Elements, but there are various programs out there. Even Windows has one, I've never used it.

Hi. You can record as much and as long as you want depending on the size of your SD Card. There is a 30 minute limit to any one recording however, then you can begin recording again.

Yes each time you stop recording a new file will be created. There is no way you can pause between scenes. If you need to access a specific point in a video, you can do this in playback mode.
