Handling the data recorded on P2 cards

“P2 cards” are semiconductor memory cards which have been adopted as the recording media for the “DVCPRO P2 series” of professional-use video production and broadcast equipment.

The data recorded in the DVCPRO P2 format is in a file format which is highly compatible with personal computers. The data file structure has its own format, the files contain not only the video and audio data which are converted into MXF files but various other important information, and the data is associated in the folder configuration shown on the right.

Changing or deleting some of this information may result in trouble: for instance, it may make it impossible for the data to be recognized as P2 data or for the cards to be used in P2 devices.

All of these folders are needed.

∗Saved in this file is the information of the last clip recorded by the P2 device.

In order to prevent any of the information from being lost when transferring the data on a P2 card to a personal computer or writing the data stored in a personal computer onto a P2 card, be absolutely sure to download the “P2 viewer” dedicated software from the following web site and use it for this purpose. (Operating systems supported: Windows XP, Windows 2000)

When transferring data to a personal computer using a regular IT tool such as Microsoft Windows Explorer or Apple Finder, proceed as follows.

To return the data to the P2 card, be absolutely sure to use the P2 viewer.

•Transfer the data together with the CONTENTS folder and LASTCLIP.TXT file. Do not perform any operations for the files under the CONTENTS folder.

When copying data, copy the LASTCLIP.TXT file together with the CONTENTS folder.

•When transferring the data on a multiple number of P2 cards to a personal computer, create the folder for each P2 card in order to prevent the same clip names from being overwritten.

•Do not delete the data on P2 cards.

•P2 cards must always be formatted using a P2 device prior to use.
