Notes

 

 

 

• When [DVCAM] is selected, there are some limitations described below.

 

 

– ATN (Absolute Track Number) outputs the value counted in DVCAM format during

 

 

playback at regular speed (1) or recording of the internal color bars only.

 

 

During playback at irregular speeds other than described above, ATN outputs the value

 

 

of a tape recorded in HDV format.

 

 

– When the unit is playing back at regular speed (1) while detecting a blank portion on

 

 

the tape, the unit counts the blank portion as ATN-formatted in DVCAM.

 

 

– When using the duplicating function that is equipped with a device such as the DSR-25/

 

 

45/50, select [DVCAM].

 

 

– Please note that a duplicated tape and the source tape recorded in HDV format with

 

 

[DVCAM] selected do not share the same ATN (Time code value is displayed

 

 

correctly).

 

 

• When you change the video format setting of [DOWN CONVERT] of [i.LINK SET] in [IN/

 

 

OUT REC] menu, the video signal output from COMPONENT OUT jacks, S VIDEO OUT

 

 

jack, or VIDEO OUT jack may be distorted for a moment.

 

• Before changing your setting, be sure to disconnect the i.LINK cable. If you change the

 

 

setting while i.LINK is connected, the video device may not recognize the new setting.

 

• When you select [EDGE CROP], the outputs of S VIDEO and VIDEO are limited.

 

 

For details, see page 85.
