Setting the Start Timecode for the Current Clip List

Continuous timecode is used in clip lists, regardless of the timecode of the parent clips of sub clips. Therefore, you can set the start timecode for each clip list.

By default, the start timecode (LTC) for the current clip list is set to “00:00:00:00”.

To set this to a different value, proceed as follows.

1 Carry out steps 1 to 4 of the procedure in “Basic Operations” (see page 72) (select TC PRESET in step 2).

The timecode setting screen appears.

The timecode shown in this screen is the current initial timecode of the current clip list. If a clip list has been loaded from disc, and timecode has already been set for that clip list, then that value is displayed.

2 Use the </IN and ,/OUT buttons to select the digit (HOUR, MIN, SEC or FRAME) you want to set.

3 Use the M/MARK1 and m/MARK2 buttons or jog dial to display the value you want to set.

To cancel the timecode setting

Press the RESET button.

4 When you have finished setting all the digits you want, press the SET button.

The starting timecode for the current clip list is set to the specified LTC value. The count starts from that value when playback starts.

5 Save the current clip list to disc.

For details, see “Saving the Current Clip List to Disc” (page 75).
