Using the Switching Information of the Unit on a Nonlinear Editing System
Using the Switching Information of the Unit on a
Nonlinear Editing System
You can save the timing of switching performed on this unit or information on
used materials as an EDL (Edit Decision List).
To make the editing process easier, the created EDL can be exported to a
“Memory Stick” or USB flash memory and then used on a nonlinear editing
system together with material recorded to an external hard disk.
Creating EDL
Created EDL
The created EDL is saved in the CMX3600 format.
Information on nonlinear editing systems and other information related to EDLs
can be found on the following Anycast Station portal sites.
https://servicesplus.us.sony.biz/SoftwarePlusSerch.aspx (for customers in
U.S.A.)
https://www.sonybiz.net/anycast (for customers in Europe, Middle East and
Africa)
https://www.ecspert.sony.biz/ecsite/ (for the other customers)
Conditions of EDL
• Audio combined with video signals is output as data at the same timing as
video switching.
• Mix, wipe, and picture-in-picture are replaced with the cut information.
• Information such as keying, downstream keying, logos, and fade to black is not
output.
• When using an EDL on a nonlinear editing system, use a file recorded on an
external hard disk with simultaneous ON LINE recording. A file that has been
recorded manually may not be able to be used properly due to timecode
inconsistencies between the EDL and the file.
• Use the reference signals output from the unit’s reference output connectors to
synchronize the unit with input devices such as cameras.
