Playing back files

Use the DV-RA1000HD in much the same way as a CD player when playing back the files recorded on a DVD±RW disc or HD.

Repeat functions, etc. will work as with CDs.

NOTE

During DVD or HD playback, neither Start ID nor Track ID is transmitted from the AES/EBU or S/PDIF outputs. (Both IDs are transmitted from the S/PDIF output during CD playback.)

Play lists

A play list is a list in which files are assigned to tracks on a DVD disc. Unlike a programmed playback list (see “Programmed playback” on page 30), each file in a play list must appear once (and only once).

TIP

Only one play list per project can be created, but it is possible to program a play list so that the tracks are played in a different order, leaving unwanted tracks to the end.

Play lists are created from the files present in a project in the following way:

1Select the EDIT sub-menu from the main menu.

2From this sub-menu, select PLAY LIST.

Figure 6.7: Editing a play list

3Use the JOG/DATA dial to highlight a file.

4Use the F1 (up) and F2 (down) keys to move the highlighted file up and down in the play list or- der.

5Press ENTER when done.

Restructuring the play list

If you copied audio files (in BWF or DSDIFF for- mat) from a computer to projects on the HD of DV-RA1000HD or to a DVD disc, you must restructure the play list to play back these audio files using the DV-RA1000HD. Follow the steps below:

1Open a project to which you copied audio files from a computer.

2Press the F3 key in the play list screen.

A popup message appears, asking whether you wish to restructure the play list.

3Press the ENTER key.

The DV-RA1000HD starts restructuring the play list.

Any audio files (in BWF or DSDIFF format) in the project folder that are not included in the current play list will be added to the end of the play list.

•Multiple audio files added to the play list will be sorted in alphabetical order. (If the audio files you attempt to add cause the play list to grow longer than the duration of the speci- fied project, only the files that will not cause the play list to exceed the specified duration will be added in alphabetical order to the play list).

NOTE

When the play list is being restructured, the trans- ferred BWF file might be converted to a different format to suit the unit. In this case, the converted file may lose some information specific to the appli- cation that created the BWF-format file.

Setting marks

As when recording CDs, you can use this facility to set location marks which can then be used for location pur- poses. (See “Editing files” on page 47.)

However, when recording to DVD±RW/HD, these marks are written to UDFMI as part of the project.
