Metadata
Several parameters can be set within the Setup Menu File Storage to aid in the organization of files.
Some of this metadata can be used in naming the file which is to be recorded. Folders are created on
the drives based on the Reel number. QuickTime files contain reel and timecode metadata.
CamID
The CamID field consists of a single alpha character. It is intended to indicate which physical camera
shot the content for the take.
Reel
The reel can be considered a container for all assets gener-
ated during a recording session or day’s work. It is intended
to indicate what reel the recording is part of. The PIX 250i
will create a folder at the root level for each Reel. Recorded
files are placed inside the current Reel folder.
Clip
The Clip field consists of a numeric value between 1 and
999. It is intended to indicate what clip number the record-
ing is. This field can be set manually and will increment each time a new file is recorded. The Clip
number will reset to 1 when the Reel number is changed.
Scene/Shot
The Scene/Shot field consists of a alpha-numeric value. Use this field to indicate a descriptive name
for the current scene or shot.
To quickly increment the Scene/Shot value, press Stop + Fast Forward from the
Main View. How the Scene/Shot value increments depends on the current setting of
[File Storage - Scene Increment Mode]
:
Numeric : If the current Scene/Shot value does not have a number on the end, the number 1 will be
appended. Otherwise, the last number will be incremented by 1.
Character
: If the current Scene/Shot value does not have a alpha character on the end, the letter “A”
will be appended. Otherwise, the last letter will be incremented alphabetically. If the final character
is “Z” it will be changed to “A” and - if a alpha character precedes it - that character preceding will
be incremented alphabetically; Otherwise a preceding “A” will be added so that the resulting Scene/
Shot value ends in “AA”.
Off
: Scene Increment shortcut will have not effect.
Take
The Take field consists of a numeric value between 1 and 999. It is intended to indicate what take
number the clip is, relative to the scene. This field can be set manually and will increment each time
a new file is recorded. The Take number will reset to 1 when the Scene name is changed.
File Management
The PIX 250i provides several tools for file management and metadata entry. File management of
files to be recorded is managed in
File Storage
. File management for files previously recorded mate-
rial is handled in the File List. See File List and File Details for navigation and basic overview .
