recovery file (MVR) that can be used to recover the data captured. A message will ask if you want to
use a recovery file. This file has the same name and location as the corresponding MVN file but with a
“MVR” extension. The file is used by MVN Studio to recover the corrupted MVN file.
9.5 Markers
During or after recording, markers can be added to the timeline to indicate events. During recording,
add a marker by clicking the Add Marker icon or by using the ‘+’ key or ‘space bar’.
Add Marker
In the playback window, a marker can be added and/or edited
by double-clicking the timeline at a specific frame or by using
the ‘+’ key. To add a marker directly, in the playback mode,
double click on a time frame, to obtain the “Set Marker” menu
shown in Figure 41. Alternatively, right click above the time
frame, select “Add marker” and the same “Set Marker” menu
will appear. Change the name of the marker in this menu to
identify the marked event.
When the marker is set, it will become yellow. Markers can be
deleted by pressing the delete button after selecting the
marker, or selecting delete marker when right-clicking above
the time line.
Figure 41: Set Marker Menu
Markers are saved as default to MVNX file. See Section 12.5.
To jump between markers, either go to Playback >Jump to next/ previous marker, or user the quick keys
‘PgUp’ for previous and ‘PgDown’ for next.
Note that when multi-person capture is used, the markers are saved in each MVN file. When the MVNS
file is opened, it includes these MVN files. This means that there can be a discrepancy when two different
sample rates are used eg if MVN Link and MVN Awinda are used. For this reason MVNS file may appear
to contain multiple markers, since they have been allocated slightly different times. Each MVN file itself
will still only contain one marker.
