searching of the scenes within a particular clip. The expand
function can be applied up to three times (12 divisions, 144
divisions, and 1728 divisions).

MAINTENANCE menu is set to CLIP, this function
operates in clip units. When FIND MODE is set to R.ST,
it operates in REC START essence mark units (the range
of a single recording operation).
Note
The maximum number of blocks may be larger than 1728
when the recorded duration of the clip is short. In this case,
the frame interval of expanded thumbnails is fixed at 1
frame. This allows you to view expanded thumbnails at
equal intervals.
