Notes
  • Unsupported Files
    - Movies created with Save to camera (memory card) selected in the Short Movie Creator Ver. 1.2.0 or earlier Create Movie dialogue box cannot be played back with the Nikon 1 V2, J3 or S1. To play back such movies on these cameras, they must be created using Short Movie Creator Ver. 1.3.0 or later.
    - MOV format movie files (MotionJPEG) recorded with COOLPIX series cameras are not supported.
    - Movies recorded at a setting of 1080/60i are handled as 1080/30p movies.
    - AVI-format movie files recorded with the COOLPIX L15, L16, L18, L19, L20, L21, L22, and S520 are not supported.
  • File Playback
    - Sound in movies recorded using the D7000 running firmware Ver. 1.01 or earlier, or the D3100, does not play.
    - In order for a user to use sample music when logged in under a user account other than that used to install the software, the user must first log in to the account used to install the software and copy the sample music file to a shared location.
    - Playback of movie files created by Short Movie Creator for transfer to a camera (memory card) is not guaranteed on all third party applications.
    - When previewing projects created using full-HD data, playback may seem to stutter, or be slow, if the computer's level of performance does not support sufficiently fast preview display. Movies will be created normally.
  • Saving files
    - Movies in an aspect ratio other than 4:3 or 16:9 will be converted to a 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio. Because movies captured by the Nikon 1 V1 during still image capture are in an aspect ratio of 3:2, the aspect ratio will not be preserved.
  • Adding content
    - Up to 20 music files can be added. Up to a combined total of 50 still image and movie files can be added as source files.
    However, the maximum number of movie files is limited to 20.
