Video may be “randomly accessed” in a quick-shuttle fashion by using the video
position slider.
The slider has a movable ball that represents the position of the video. When the ball
is at the far-left side of the slider, the video is “rewound” to its beginning. When the
ball is at the far-right side of the slider, the video is at the end.
The slider’s ball is automatically repositioned when the position of the video changes as
a result of the use of one of the VCR controls. You may, however, move the ball
manually by clicking and dragging it. The video will be immediately updated on the
screen to reflect your movement.
NOTE:
With longer videos, the slider will seem more sensitive—small movements of
the slider will represent more video frames.
The Mouse Wheel
If your mouse has a “wheel,” you may use it to advance the video
frame-by-frame. In the example to the left, the wheel is shown in
green. To use the mouse wheel, first position the cursor over the
video. Then rotate the mouse wheel down (use your finger to pull
the top toward you) to step the video forward. Move the wheel in
the opposite direction to step the video backward. Each “step” of
the wheel will correspond to one video image.
Impact and Key Position Buttons
The V1 has the ability to memorize up to eight key video positions. The behavior of
this feature is controlled by an option on the V1’s Software Options page. Here you
may choose 4 golf positions (address, top-of-backswing, impact, and follow-through),
8 golf positions, or 8 non-sport-specific positions. You will see key positions
represented on the video slider as green triangles.
Golf-specific positions
In the context of a golf swing, the most important of these is the “impact” position—
the frame nearest the point in time when the club hits the ball (also known as the
Impact Point). In fact, several of the V1’s features require that the impact point of a
swing be set before those features become available. A video’s Impact Point may be
set automatically—see the Recording Options section of the Video Recording chapter. If
a video’s Impact Point has not been set, you will see this button:
