USB/CFast storage：Save on USB media (USB connected HDD or flash drive)/CFast Download：Save to the control PC using the control software HXLinkUSB/CFast storage does not require connection to a control PC, and you can save by simply operating theJ-PAD3. Downloading requires connection to a control PC but videos can be downloaded faster than USBstorage and multiple segments and videos can be batch downloaded from multiple cameras.Saving to USB is described in this manual. Refer to the HXLink user guide for saving with the control softwareHXLink.With the HX-7, files can be saved in the MCFF, AVI or MJPEG formats. MCFF： Video format dedicated to the MEMRECAM series saves everything, including the image dataobtained from the sensor, the time stamp (data recorded at the same time, such as the time),and image quality settings. After saving, this is optimal if making image quality adjustmentswith HXLink or if you need to set or record during recording. The file name is MCFF****(sequential) and the file extension is MCF. AVI： With an uncompressed AVI (Windows standard video file format) file playback is possible withstandard video playback software. Codec for uncompressed is not required and the imagequality does not deteriorate. The file name is MCAV**** (sequential) and the file extension isAVI. MJPEG： Compressed AVI file in the Motion JPEG format. The file size can be smaller than anuncompressed AVI file but the image quality will deteriorate. Additionally, the time requiredfor saving is more because of data compression. MotionJPEG codec or HXLink is required forplayback. The file name is MCAV**** (sequential) and the file extension is AVI.The video playback software used is not compatible with large AVI files with sizes of 2560 × 1920 or 1920× 1920. In these instances, playback using HXLink.File Formats for Saving Videos
