I don't understand this one. Can you video what is happening?
Sure, see the video, I just went from recording mode to Frame adjustment mode and when pushing the < > button(s) the frame on screen jump to totally zoom out.

This might be a new limitation. It seems it was broken in V7.4 (v7.3 is okay). So two steps forward, one step back. In three weeks no one else has reported it, as we general frame, then capture, not capture then frame. It is a bug, and worth looking into.

I've seen this bug, but I didn't bother reporting it because it only happened once and I couldn't repeat it. Anyway, the workaround is simple enough: restart the unit. That said, if you are able to find and fix the bug, then you rock, as always!
