Rerecording the Timecode - TC Insert Function (DVCAM Format Only) The TC insert function allows you to replace the timecode recorded on a tape with continuous timecode generated by this unit's internal timecode generator, for example when the timecode recorded on a tape is discontinuous (user bit data can also be replaced with new data at the same time). When recording in DVCAM format, you can start recording timecode from an initial value (see page 52) which can be set freely. Notes • Use a tape which is recorded in DVCAM format. (You cannot use the TC insert function with a tape recorded in HDV/DV format.) • The timecode recording starts from the current tape position. Cue the tape up to the desired start position beforehand. • If you use a tape on which ClipLink log data is recorded, the ClipLink log data will be lost. Press the TC PRESET button to set the initial value of the timecode to be inserted, then carry out the following procedure.

When recording in DVCAM format, you can start

recording timecode from an initial value

(see page 52)

which can be set freely.

•

Use a tape which is recorded in DVCAM format. (You

cannot use the TC insert function with a tape recorded in

HDV/DV format.)

The timecode recording starts from the current tape

position. Cue the tape up to the desired start position

beforehand.

•

If you use a tape on which ClipLink log data is recorded,

the ClipLink log data will be lost.
