*1 When UB MODE is FRM.RATE, playback of native clips is the pulldown frame rate read from VITC UB.
*2 In Free Run mode, it is slaved to the value input to the DVCPRO/DV connector. It does not slave it to the time code from
the TC IN connector.
*3 In Free Run mode, it is slaved to the time code input to the TC IN connector.
*4 In Free Run mode, it is slaved to the time code input to the TC IN connector. But not slaved to it during recording.
*5 VAUX TC is time code recorded in the video AUX area in the DVC format.
