Linear Editing
Overview
You can perform the following types of editing on
recorded clips.
• A disc which contains clip lists cannot be used as a disc
for editing. However, it can be used as a playback disc.
• A disc which contains clips in different recording
formats cannot be used as a disc for editing. However, it
can be used as a playback disc if you create a clip list that
contains only clips in one of the recording formats.
• Locked clips cannot be edited.
• Editing across multiple clips is not possible.
• It is not possible to carry out assemble editing other than
on the final clip.
• If there is no space on the disc, in assemble editing it will
not be possible to extend the clip.
• Preread editing is not supported.
• After line ar editing, discs in the MPEG HD422 format
cannot be read by the versions 1.2 or earlier of the PDW-
HD1500/700. To play such discs on the PDW-HD1500/
700, upgrade the software to version 1.5 or higher.
• Even after linear editing, the underlying VANC data is
not rewritten. (VANC data cannot be edited.) However,
essence mark data is rewritten (can be edited).
• Linear ed iting is not possible when the unit is in one of
the following modes. To perform linear editing, exit the
mode.
- Single clip playback mode
- Clip Continuous Rec mode
- Disc Exchange Cache mode
• Normally, linear editing on this unit can target only clips
that have been created on XDCAM devices. It may not
be possible to edit clips that been created by other
software applications and uploaded to this unit as files.
