Section 7 : Recording/editing of subcode data

7-6. ABS time

The ABS time is the elapsed time (absolute time) from the beginning of the tape.

When recording is performed from the beginning of the tape, the ABS time is automatically recorded.

áWhen recording is performed from a point other than

the beginning of the tape, ABS time is not recorded.

áEven with a tape on which the ABS time has been recorded, ABS time is not recorded if recording starts from a non-recorded section.

áWhen recording continuously on a tape with the ABS time recorded, fast forward the tape to the End ID or execute Blank Search (œp.25) to wind the tape to the point just before a non-recorded section, then start recording. This ensures that the ABS time is recorded continuously.

7-7. Program time

The program time means the elapsed time from the begin- ning of each program (Start ID).

The program time is recorded with the Start ID for 9 sec- onds in the same way as the program number.

When the Start ID is erased, the program time is erased at the same time.

áThe program time is recorded for 9 seconds. However, when the part after that is played back, the program time is shown using internal counting.
