Automatically Creating New ClipLink Log Data

When the setup menu item 129 (CLIPLINK) is set to ON, you can automatically create new Mark IN/OUT points during recording or editing operation.

For information about how to operate the setup menu, see Chapter 6 “Setup Menu” on page 105.

New Mark IN/OUT points are created as follows.

Notes

If recording or editing is carried out when the setup menu item 129 (CLIPLINK) is set to OFF, the existing ClipLink log data is erased.

If you carry out recording or editing on a tape on which index pictures are already recorded, the existing ClipLink log data for the tape is lost.

The Mark IN/OUT point data automatically created during recording or editing operation for a tape on which no index pictures are recorded is added to the end of the existing ClipLink log data for the tape.

In this case, if you carry out recording or editing on a tape position linked to the existing ClipLink log data, the link between them is lost. Therefore, when you start creating new ClipLink log data, where on the tape to start recording or editing must be determined very carefully. If the existing ClipLink log data is no longer required, erase it beforehand.
