kbps per audio channel), MPEG-4 based version of a full
resolution data stream. Whenever this unit records video
signals input to the HD/SD-SDI INPUT connector,
transfers files to internal storage via a network, copies files
from internal storage to an SxS memory card, etc. it
simultaneously generates and records low-resolution
proxy AV data
.
High-speed searches with the shuttle/jog dial
The shuttle/jog dial can be used to find scenes inside clips
on the internal storage/Professional Discs, in the same way
as the shuttle and jog dials on conventional VTRs.
In variable-speed mode, you can search in field units at
from –2 to +2 times normal speed. Shuttle mode supports
high-speed searches up to a maximum of ±20 times normal
speed.
Convenient playback and searching
