Introduction
The VN-Recorder Frame Translator utility described in this section allows the conversion
of existing VN-Matrix video recordings to individual still frames. These frames can be
assembled into standard video, HD video, or other types of media files using third-party
editing applications.
The utility also allows audio files to be converted to .WAV format.

Overview
To create a media file from a VN-Matrix recording:
1.
Use VN-Matrix encoders and recorders to create a VN-Matrix recording.
2.
Create a directory on the VN-Matrix recorder, where the still frames and audio file will be
stored (see
Recording File Directory Nomenclature
on page 32).
3.
Use the Frame Translator Utility to export the video recordings as still frames to the
directory created in step 2. If required, use the utility to export audio recordings as WAV
files to the same directory (see
Frame Translation Procedure
on page 33).
4.
Transfer the still frames and audio files to a PC running a third-party editing application.
5.
Create a video or media file from the still frames and audio file.
The main focus of this section is step 3, the
