Advanced Operations for Shooting

Chapter 4 Shooting

In this case, the message “RE-TAKE NOT

ALLOWED!” appears. When you want to replace the

last clip with a new clip, delete the clip (see page 131).

Once you carry out a retake operation, the last clip is

deleted even if you do not carry out a recording

operation afterwards.

About the automatic title generation

function

By default, clips on each disc are assigned names

in the range C0001.MXF to C9999.MXF. For this

reason, two discs can contain clips with the same

names. The automatic title generation function

allows you to assign titles to all of the clips on

several discs, which facilitates clip management.

For example, if the titles TITLE00001 to

TITLE00020 are assigned to clips C0001.MXF to

C0020.MXF on disc 1, then the titles

TITLE00021 to TITLE00037 are assigned to

clips C0001.MXF to C0017.MXF on disc 2.

Titles are made up of prefixes, up to 10 characters

in length, and five-digit serial numbers such as

TITLE 00001.

Setting the title prefix

You can assign title prefixes by choosing from a

prefix list stored in internal memory, or by

entering the prefix directly.

However, to choose from a prefix list, you must

create the list beforehand on a computer and

transfer it to the unit’s internal memory with a

“Memory Stick”.

Setting the initial value of the serial number

The initial value of the serial number can be set to

00001 (the default) or to any other number. The

number is automatically incremented by 1 each

time you record a clip. When it reaches 99999, it

returns to 00001 for the next clip.

Note

Duplicate clip titles can be generated depending on the

serial number setting, for example if you reset the serial

number to the original value after recording several clips.

Care should be taken when setting the serial number.
