Importing/Exporting File List

Entry information in MXF files on the e-VTR can be exported to, named and saved on the PC.

When file information saved on the computer is imported to another e-VTR, a new MXF file will be created on the e-VTR.

Files created during import are referred to as “import files” to distinguish them from other file formats (real file, temporary file, and virtual file). Since information in import files is not saved to the memory labels attached to cassettes, they are discarded when the power is turned off or the tape is ejected.

There are 2 levels for file import and export.

Full: All file-related data are imported and exported. This data is binary and thus cannot be viewed in the editor window or by other applications.

Simple: Only file names and the starting and ending timecodes of files are imported and exported. This data consist of alphanumeric characters and can be viewed in the editor window or by other applications. Please note that the existence of identical timecodes on the cassette to may lead to cueing failures.

1 Select File in the main window of the e-VTR Manager, and then select Setup to select the import/export level.

To select Full level, check the Full Style File Import checkbox. To select Simple level, remove the check from the checkbox.

2 Right-click in an empty area in the file list, and then select Export File or Import File from the popup menu.

When Export File is selected, the Input File Name window appears.

When Import File is selected, the Select File Name

window appears.

3 Enter the file name or the select files to be imported, and then click on OK.

Notes

Only real files, temporary files, and import files are exportable. Virtual files cannot be exported.

Make sure the import/export level settings are the same on the transmitting and receiving VTRs. For example, file data exported with a Full setting cannot be imported with a Simple setting.

If the cassette tape in the e-VTR contains even a single file that was imported with a Simple setting, then file reception will be disabled since it is impossible to specify the recording range on the tape.
