    Summary
    Add at least one media unit to generate the summary.
    Why total run time matters. Under FRCP 30(f)(1) the officer must certify the deposition, and most jurisdictions and firm billing conventions key off total recorded time rather than wall-clock time on site. Run time is also the number that drives your sync, transcription, and archival line items — get it wrong on the certificate and you will be correcting it in front of counsel.
