O CUE signals are not transferred by the SDTI interface.

O SDTI dubbing is not possible from tapes recorded using the DV or DVCAM format.

Use SDI when dubbing tapes recorded in the DV or DVCAM format.

O When playing back a DV or DVCAM format tape, DV compressed signals (Compliant with IEC61834- 2.) serve as the SDTI output.

O The video and audio signals in the SDTI output signals cannot be adjusted.

O During SLOW/STILL playback, the unprocessed video and audio signals are output as the SDTI output.

When these video and audio signals are to be monitored using another device, they may differ from the video and audio signals played back by this unit.
