<Cautions when playing back consumer DV tapes and DVCAM tapes>

Consumer DV tapes which have been recorded in the LP mode cannot be played back.

When materials which have been recorded on consumer DV tapes or DVCAM tapes are to be edited, record them onto a DVCPRO tape or tape of any other broadcasting VTR for use.

The maximum transport speed for consumer DV tapes and DVCAM tapes is 32 times the normal tape speed.

The video images may be disturbed during slow motion playback of consumer-use tapes.

From the viewpoint of protecting the tape, minimize repeated cue-up at the same location on a consumer-use tape.

The maximum STILL TIMER time is set to 20 seconds when a consumer-use tape is used.

The sampling rate of the audio signals recorded on a consumer-use tape is 48 kHz. When the AJ-YAD455P digital video interface board is used, audio signals can be recorded at a rate of 44.1 kHz or 32 kHz on a consumer-use tape only when DVCPRO/DV signals are input.

During recording on a consumer-use tape, scenes can be recorded with continuity between frames by exercising control from the controller or personal computer (when the AJ- YAD455P digital video interface board is used) which has the REC/PAUSE command. However, in this case, the video and sound for the one frame before and after the continuity point may be disturbed.
