Clips
Material recorded with this unit is managed in units called
“clips”. A clip contains the material between a recording
start point and a recording end point.
Clips have numbers beginning with C, for example C0001.
Instead of using clip numbers, you can manage clips by
assigning clip titles.
For details, see “Assigning Clip Titles” (page 60).
Clip lists
Data called a “clip list” is created when you use the scene
selection function to select desired clips from the clips
stored on a disc.
Clip lists have numbers beginning with E, for example
E0001. Up to 99 clip lists can be saved on a disc.
Sub clips (clips in clip lists)
The specified clips (or parts of clips) in a clip list are called
“sub clips”. Sub clips are virtual data specifying ranges in
the original clips. Clip data in the original clips is not
overwritten. The following figure shows the relation
between clips and sub clips.
In the above example, the whole of clip 2 has been added
as sub clip 1, and the whole of clip 4 has been added as sub
clip 2.
Sub clip 3 is part of clip 3. Therefore, when clip list E0001
is played back, clip 4 is played after clip 2, and then the
part of clip 3 shown in gray color is played.
Clip list editing (current clip list)
To edit a clip lists, you need to load the clip from the disc
into the internal unit memory.
The clip list which is currently loaded into the unit memory
is called the “current clip list”.
The current clip list is always the target of sub clip creation
and editing. Clip list playback also uses the current clip
list.
After creating and editing a clip list, you need to save it to
disc.
Clip list playback
Clips and clip lists are saved together on a disc.
Clips are played back according to clip list data.
