YouTube Mode
YouTube Mode allows you to record movies with predefined video settings for easy
upload to the YouTube website.
YouTube supports two file upload standards:
• Single File Uploader. The maximum movie file size is up to 100 MB.
• YouTube Uploader. The maximum movie file size is up to 1 GB.
Most uploaded movie length ranges within 5 minutes, although you can upload a
maximum movie length of 10 minutes.
Therefore when you record using the YouTube mode, the following standards are
followed:
• Recorded movies are set to YouTube standard resolution of 640 X 480.
• Recording automatically stops when the file reaches 100 MB.
Recorded movies in the YouTube mode are stored following the DCF rule, however
movies are saved in a specific folder named “_UTUBE”. For more details, please
refer to “Folder Structure” on page 61.
• To record a YouTube movie, select from the Movie Size function.
Available recording time for a YouTube movie is up to 10 minutes.
