Abstract
System and methods are disclosed that improve the speed, efficiency and usefulness of digital video recording systems. In some embodiments, during recording of a video capturing live action, a video recorder receives an indication of selection of a dynamic in-point selection user interface element. The video recorder determines an in-point for the video based on when the indication of the selection of the dynamic in-point selection user interface element was received. The video recorder then stops recording of the video in response to user input indicating to stop recording of the video. After stopping recording of the video, in response to user input indicating to start playing the video that was recorded, the video recorder starts playing the video from the in-point instead of a beginning of the video. In other embodiments, the user may be provided options to keep the entire originally recorded video, adjust the in-point, or to have the video be automatically edited based on the in-point in response to some other action, such as uploading the video to a social media site.
