Restoring clips

You can restore clips that were made defective as a result of sudden power-down during recording or removal of the P2 card being accessed.

1Use the cursor buttons to move the cursor over the clip to be restored (defective clips are indicated by defective clip marks) and press the <SET> button to select the clip.

2 Select [REPAIR] in the main menu → [CLIP] and press the <SET> button.

@@NOTE

tt You can restore clips with yellow defective clip indicators. Delete clips with red defective clip indicators. If the clips cannot be deleted, format the P2 card.

During restoration of the clips, however, the defective clip indicator may change from yellow to red, and result in the inability to restore the clips.

Reconnecting incomplete clips

Incomplete clips may be generated when clips recorded on multiple P2 cards (connected clips) are separately copied from each card. The reconnection function generates one clip (the original, connected clip) from incomplete clips.

1Use the cursor buttons and the <SET> button to select incomplete clips to be reconnected. Usually, thumbnails of incomplete clips (clips with [] indicator) are displayed in a line.

2 Select [RE‑CONNECT] in the main menu → [CLIP] and press the <SET> button.

3Use the cursor buttons and the <SET> button to select [YES]. This reconnects incomplete clips.

@@NOTE

tt Incomplete clip indicators will remain displayed when only some clips are reconnected, unless all the constituent clips of the original clip are reconnected.

Copying clips

Selected clips can be copied to a P2 card or a connected USB storage device in the desired slot.

ffWhen multiple clips are selected, the number of selected clips is displayed after pressing the <SET> button. ffIf the copy destination is a storage device, select the copy destination properties.
