and sections when splitting or recording. You can
also sort the scenes in the scene bin. To do this,
delete a scene, select another, and then click on
the Undo button, causing the deleted scene to be
reinserted just after the selected scene.
Problem: Sometimes I can't insert a transition
effect.
Solution: Transition effects cannot overlap! If an
effect has already been assigned to an entire scene
(can happen with very short scenes), then it is not
possible to insert another effect.
Problem: I have already recorded a lot of material
and would like to know how many more minutes
I can record.
Solution: The remaining time (available space for
video) is displayed in the "Recording" menu.
Problem: I've finished a project and would like to
start another. How do I start?
Solution: If you want to keep your video material
on the Casablanca Prestige, then you can start a
new project in menu "Project settings". Otherwise
you can choose the option "Delete", which after
a confirmation request will delete all the data of
your current project.
Problem: I can't find my project data!
Solution: Check the System settings screen.
Perhaps you have activated the wrong project by
accident.
ERROR MESSAGES
Problem: The crossed-out SmartMedia card sym-
bol appears on the screen.
Solution: This symbol means that you should
insert the installation SmartMedia card, because
the card currently in the drive is invalid.
Problem: The ambulance symbol and a number
code appear on the screen.
Solution: This symbol indicates a serious error
(e.g. defective hardware). In this case, contact
your Casablanca Prestige dealer.
TURNING OFF
Problem:
The machine won't turn all the way off
-- the red light always lit.
Solution: The machine is in stand-by mode
meaning that the red light is always on. This
mode of operation saves electricity if you use the
machine often. If you don't plan on using your
Casablanca Prestige for an extended period of
time, then you should pull the power plug (after
having turned off the machine).
Problem: Is data lost if I pull the power plug for
an extended period of time?
Solution: No, your data is stored on the internal
hard drive. However, before pulling the plug
you should power-down the machine correctly
by pressing the power switch on the front of
the machine or by clicking on the "OFF" button
in the Main Menu screen. This also applies to
all other cables. Never disconnect a cable from
your Casablanca Prestige while the machine is
operating!
Problem: The machine does not turn off right
away. It takes awhile.
Solution: This is normal behavior for your Cas-
ablanca Prestige. Before the machine is actually
turned off the current project is automatically
saved, and this can last several seconds. Only then
does the machine actually turn off. Even if the
shutdown program receives no message from the
machine, it will turn the machine off, but only
