Notes

•The value of the serial number is incremented by 1 every time a title is generated. When the value reaches 99999, the next number restarts from 00001.

•Duplicate clip titles can be generated if you reset the serial number after recording several clips or the same is true depending on the value setting. Care should be taken when setting the serial number.

•The “PREFIX” setting is saved in memory banks, but the “NUMERIC” setting is not saved (see page 94).

•The following names should be avoided.

-Clips: C5000.MXF to C9999.MXF

-Clip lists: E0001.SMI to E0099.SMI

To assign clip names on this unit

The title assigned to clip becomes its clip name (file name).

Notes

•When the first letter of the title setting with setup menu item 035 CLIP TITLE NAMING SELECT is a space or period (.), the clip name is the title string minus the first letter.

•An FTP client that supports UTF-8 is required to use Unicode characters other than ASCII characters. Command prompt FTP commands do not support UTF-8.

However, the following control characters and symbols cannot be used.
