Capturing pictures
There are two capture modes in DVgate Still: the
Continuous Capture
mode and the
Single Frame
Capture
mode.
❑
Continuous Capture mode:
If you capture pictures during
Play
mode, you can capture 30 frames of still pictures in total with
respectively 15 frames in the forward and backward directions. All still pictures already captured, are
lost. If you capture during
Pause
mode, you can capture only one frame of a still picture.
✍
Immediately after you capture during
Play
mode in
Continuous Capture
mode, the DV device pauses.
❑
Single Frame Capture mode:
You can capture one frame of a still picture. The captured result is the same even if you capture during
Play
or
Pause
mode.
✍
Capturing 30 frames in
Continuous Capture
mode replaces all 30 frames. Capturing only one frame overwrites the first frame of the still picture,
capturing the next frame overwrites the second frame, and so on.

mode, proceed as follows:
