Digitally Dubbing Signals in DVCAM Format

In addition to straightforward tape dubbing, you can also use this unit to digitally dub signals in DVCAM format automatically from the beginning of the tape to the end, through an i.LINK or SDTI(QSDI) interface. When a tape recorded on a DSR-1/1P Digital Videocassette Recorder or DSR-300/300P Digital Camcorder is dubbed, the ClipLink log data held in the cassette memory is also copied.

For information about connections and basic settings, see the section “Connections for Digitally Dubbing Signals in DVCAM Format” (page 132).

Notes

Use a tape which is recorded in the DVCAM format. A tape recorded in DV format cannot be used as a source tape for an dubbing operation using the AUTO FUNCTION menu.

Regardless of the audio channel settings made in the input selection section of this unit, dubbing is performed with the original audio recording mode unchanged (two-channel mode (48 kHz) or four-channel mode (32 kHz)).

Approximately the last 2 minutes of the tape may not be copied because of differences in tape lengths. (If an Index Picture is recorded in this portion, it may also not be copied.)

A continuous recorded section of approximately 5 seconds is required before the recording start point. It is recommended to record beforehand color bars or a similar signal at the start point of the recording tape to be used on this unit.
