Notes

Directories cannot be created in the Clip directory.

When the following operations, supported by version 1.5 and higher XDCAM devices, are carried out on a disc, then it becomes impossible for version 1.4 and lower XDCAM devices to record new clips or delete existing clips on that disc. (The only possible operations are playback and disc formatting.)

- Writing of clips with user-defined names

-Deletion of clips (except the last recorded clip)

-Locking of clips

If you attempt to write a C*.MXF file which does not meet the conditions specified as remark d) on this table via a FAM connection, a Windows error message appears to the effect that the file or directory is corrupt and cannot be read.
