The SH video files are small in comparison to most scope recorded video files. The original SH held about 30 hours of video and the newer SH A3 can store about 60 hours. I simply turn on the recording when I start calling and turn it off when done for each stand. This way you won't miss any recording. Bering thermals record 10 minutes of video and automatically start a new file after this. The negative of this method is you don't want to keep or post videos that are 10 minutes long if a coyote is only in 30 seconds of video for instance. There are lots of programs that allow you to clip a file. This is one option to consider. I download all my videos after each hunt, and then delete the ones with no action, and keep the ones that have action in them. It doesn't seem like it would be hard to remember to hit record, but in the heat of the moment, it can be an easy thing to forget.
No matter if you manually start the video when you see the coyote or if you turn it on right away, always remember to stop the recording before turning off the video. If you don't the file gets corrupted. If someone ever loses a critical video, let me know as I purchased a video program that can usually fix the file, but it takes some work.
